    Ty and Matt

    Love this post. It's been a great 5 years! So proud of these two young men and how they've left the program better than they found it. Both were such vital pieces and perhaps a little undervalued at times. Both battled through a lot and made this program proud. Ultimately, their 2 man 2020...

    Takeaways: Wildcats overwhelm Lehigh in dominant season opener

    He looked really impressive in the European games, and his defense will come along. He's not quite as ready as KJ, but I think his ceiling is higher. Regardless, 2 freshmen that can contribute bodes well for complementing the big time recruiting class coming in next season.

    Who will be second in scoring this year?

    Well, Brooks, Ty, and Matt all sat out, so options were somewhat limited. I heard Luke played well.
