Florida Atlantic basketball coach Dusty May has led the Owls to their first Final Four in program history, but there was a point where he wanted out.
May said he started feeling buyer's remorse after he saw the team's facilities. The locker rooms were small. The arena only sat 2,500 people. Both were outdated, compared to what the former Florida assistant was used to under Gators coach Mike White.
"At that point, I still haven't been to our gym, our weight room, our locker room," he said. "The facilities weren't up to par. And I had already accepted the job… I would've left and went back to Gainesville after signing the contract if it wasn't for my relationship with Mike and his family.""We didn't trick him or anything.
