On Claude
Guys & Gals, I wanted to make sure you all had a chance to see what SR had to say regarding the Claude situation and the Gators.
"Todd cares about culture; I'm so glad we dug deep on Claude before we offered."
I am adding to this a little bit. This is not because they just won the Natty - Todd has been on the right path with evaluations and roster building/management with this team 100%. I fully trust his ability to evaluate, BUT more importantly, find the "right" pieces to the puzzle from a cultural point of view. They are doing extensive research from a talent perspective, and multiple players check the box. Then comes what is equally important - is the potential player a great fit? If it's not a perfect fit, checking "all" boxes, Coach Golden will move in another direction.
