One of Udinski’s best attributes is his ability to develop players, specifically on the offensive side of the ball.

Sometimes teams must make bold decisions to achieve that kind of return. Should Cleveland not choose to hire him this offseason, there is a good chance he will be picked up by another team next offseason.
