Prior to the season, Florida head coach Gregg Troy said in a fan Q&A that it would take an 18.39 in the 50-yard free by Caeleb Dressel for him to shave his mustache. That’s exactly what happened in prelims of the 2016 Southeastern Conference championships.
Not only did Dressel post an 18.39 in prelims, he then lowered the American record with a stunning 18.23 in finals.
Today, Troy paid up on the bet and let Dressel do the honors.
