“That coaching staff was fantastic last year,” according to Brown, who made this statement. “In my opinion, they were among the top mid-majors in college basketball last season, if not the best. Given that they entered the transfer portal, they are unquestionably the underdog, and I believe they will have a very strong team this season.
Their roster is excellent, in my opinion. The coaches have been excellent. They have been telling me that I will be in control of the situation.
