Celebrating Leonard Hamilton’s Florida State legacy, breaking down what’s next for Seminoles basketball

For the final time in his Florida State career, Leonard Hamilton is set to take the court in the Donald L. Tucker Center as the head coach of the Seminoles. As he prepares to coach his final home game this Saturday at 4 p.m. against SMU, Matt Minnick and Michael Rogner take the time on the latest episode of Gospel of Ham to look back and appropriately commemorate the legendary coach’s transformative tenure. From iconic moments like the 2012 ACC Tournament to crafting their all-time “finishing five” lineups while spotlighting underappreciated, the duo reflect on what Hamilton built at Florida State. It’s not all just nostalgia, as the second half of the episode takes a look ahead to the future as well. Discussion includes what the recent settlement between FSU and the ACC could mean for Florida State basketball, debating coaching candidates like Luke Loucks and Sam Cassell and more. 2024-2025 Reflection, Final Game Preview [01:42 - 06:58] Leonard Hamilton’s FSU Legacy [06:58 - 29:56] Florida State Basketball’s All-Time Finishing Five [07:48 - 13:52] Memorable FSU Basketball Teams & Moments [13:52 - 21:16] Underrated Seminoles Basketball Players [21:16 - 29:56] Post-Hamilton Era [30:20 - 51:36] ACC Settlement Discussion, Revenue Implications [30:20 - 33:12] Potential New Coaches and Recruiting Challenges [36:45 - 51:36] Learn more about your ad choices.
