Florida head coach Todd Golden went on the College Hoops Today Podcast with CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein this past week and the big takeaway was Golden confirming what many people expected–that returning guard Walter Clayton would be starting at point guard.
When Clayton committed to the Gators before the 2023-24 season there was discussion about how much point guard he would play after getting some reps as the lead ball handler at Iona. Though he was a capable ball handler at that level he was much better away from the ball which foreshadowed how things went at Florida.
