Another important part of roster construction can be retention of their current roster, and one major college basketball team saw a major player come back to school.
Florida, being one of those teams, got a huge boost when Thomas Haugh announced a return to Gainesville. Gators head coach Todd Golden shared that a former Michigan State star played a big role in that decision.
