Donovan wants to return to Florida?

So far this is just on foxsports.com:

According to two sources close to the situation, the former Florida coach, who accepted the Orlando Magic job on Friday, is attempting to return to Gainesville.

Donovan agreed to a five-year, $27.5 million contract with the Magic late last week, but has approached both sides about getting out of the deal.

According to one source, Donovan was forced to make a rash decision by the Magic management -- and he regretted it shortly after agreeing to the contract.

Speculation centered on VCU coach and former Gators assistant Anthony Grant replacing Donovan quickly. In fact, Grant was slated to meet with Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley on Saturday morning.

However, shortly after landing in Virginia, Foley had to return due to an emergency. One source confirmed that the emergency was that Donovan contacted Foley about returning.

Wow. If he slithers back to Gainesville, I think that would be better than him leaving in the first place. Wonderful.

Good Lord! Make up your mind.  What is up with all these coaches flip flopping?  It's almost like they're on the sauce, sober up and wonder what they've done!

Mmmm... Waffles....
Maybe Donovan is looking for an IHop or Waffle House endorsement deal.
Looking for a rock to wind a piece of string around.
