    The article does not specifically mention it but Walt is the first basketball player from UF to win the award. Also the first SEC basketball player to win the award since Antony Davis in 2012.

    That is the coolest thing ever...
    I guess I wasn't the only one who noticed that our own Walter Clayton thoroughly outplayed the SEC Player of the year when they met head to head in the Final 4.

    Surprised they didn’t give it to Broome after Pearl has tried convincing the world he is the best thing since sliced bread.
