Newly Hired Assistant Dave Klatsky Bringing Fresh Perspective To Florida’s Bench

Related Topics: Alex Klatsky, Todd Golden

Florida has filled one of its assistant coach openings with the hire of Dave Klatsky. If the last name rings a bell it’s because Klatsky is the first cousin (once removed) of former Florida walk on Alex Klatsky. Klatsky might seem like somewhat of an unconventional hire as he comes to the Gators from the D-III level where he was the head coach of New York University. He had a successful stint at NYU that saw them reach the National Championship game where they unfortunately fell to Trinity (CT). There is a trend right now at the high-major level of head coaches from lower levels being hired as assistants so this falls in that line as well.
