Florida Gators senior guard Will Richard knew the team would be national champions before the season even began.
"I saw it in the first week of offseason that we had a special group," Richard told "CBS Mornings" in a post-victory interview from San Antonio. "I knew as long as we kept the right mindset and just attacked every game the same way we were going to give ourselves a good chance to do something special this year."
His sharp shooting and unwavering confidence helped propel the Florida Gators to their first NCAA basketball championship since 2007 with a nail-biting 65-63 victory over the Houston Cougars on Monday night.
