How do I deal with splitpush Udyr (Godyr)?

Basically, I get into a game as Cassiopeia and there's an enemy jungle Udyr, who ends up actually never ganking ever. After early game, the enemy team is pretty ahead, but then later on we start catching them out and coming back, and the game actually seemed winnable. That is, until Udyr emerged from the jungle. By the time any of us could get there to deal with him, he'd already have gotten an entire turret, and nobody could catch or burst him because he was super tanky and would just spam bear stance and run away. I ended the game 16/4 with a Rylai's on a champion who has a single-target spell up every 0.5 seconds AND a speed boost if I land my Q, and not even I could catch him. We could never engage in an actual teamfight with the enemy team because Udyr would just take an inhibitor in under 5 seconds, and then a nexus turret on top of that. I guess my question is, how should I deal with this? Is there a way to shut him down in the jungle before he gets all of those devourer stacks? Keep in mind I really only play Team Builder, so counterpicks aren't an option. I just have to use what I'm given.

godyr here, you dont go for godyr heres why

  • you cant catch him, trust me people have tried
  • you cant duel him, trust me.. just cuz he has 2 kills and you have 12 doesnt mean he isnt gonna instagib you with 3 stances cuz THIS NIGGA has 400 farm in 20 mintues and you got like 72

so what you do is NOT deal with him, and go for his stupid team well they arent stupid but 99/10, teams are not smart enough to know how to play with the split pushing godyr and they will make ALL SORTS OF GAME THROWING MISTAKES which will then lead to godyr shouting obscenities in the end chat

you never want to devote more than 1 person on udyr, any more is a waste of resources cuz it only takes 1 to hinder his split push enough so he wont take your nexus turret

It may not have looked like you guys we that far behind, but you were the entire game. You were basically going even in a 4v5 The counter to a jungle hermit udyr is to have your jungler go ape on all his laners, and by the time he finds his way out of the forest the rest of his team will be so far behind he wont be able to carry.
