Couple this with the CBS NIL payroll article,  Painter’s ego will be unreachable if he has a great season with this group.  Sadly, I won’t be surprised.  He’s pretty special.  And the home court advantage has grown to be top 2 in the league.  
 

I think they are gonna shoot a lot of 3s.  Live and die by shooting.  They will likely be a little better version of what we put on the floor last season.

This is so weak. I usually like Rothstein ok, but apparently he defines “under the radar breakout players” as “highly rated well-known HS recruits who are just gonna play more this year.” C’mon, any idiot can do that.

We’ve talked about this before but it bears repeating: SLU is a really good job and Schertz can afford to be very picky with the next gig, though it’s probably fair to assume the next one is very possibly Michigan.

Reminds me of old school CBB pre-NIL and pre-portal.  Good old academic fraud to try and get someone eligible.  Nostalgic.

It was also a home game for them and a road game for us.

So funny to read this, my middle son was coached for a while by Rafer in AAU years ago when Rafer’s son, Reese, was this tiny little kid — and a good, nice kid btw (and Rafer’s a chill dude), now dirty Wade is chasing him smh
