Partners, Paul Rice and Jim Rose, sport their team colors at
work on Monday, April 3, 2006, in advance of the NCAA
basketball championship game featuring their beloved Florida
Gators versus the storied UCLA Bruins. The University of
Florida won its first ever NCAA basketball title under coach
Billy Donovan with a school record of 33 wins against six
losses. Mr. Rice earned both a Bachelor's Degree in Business
Administration in 1980 and a Juris Doctor in 1983 from the
University of Florida. Mr. Rose earned his law degree from
Florida in 1982 and is currently the president of the
Volusia County Gator Club. Both partners are long time Gator
football season ticket holders and have zealously supported
the Gators through thick and thin.
