    I told the guys they got to do something that most human beings only dream of. They impacted and gave hope & joy to thousands of people in our community and around the country with this historic run. Incredibly proud and blessed to be their coach. Hell of a season. Go Bearcats!

    My wife and I are very excited for this wonderful opportunity! I hope to lead a program that makes everyone proud with players that strive to improve in the classroom, on the court, and in the community on a daily basis. A good process yields great results. #cLawsUp

    Sick for those young men of @LMURailsplitter. That’s a tough way for it to end. So proud of the amazing season they had and, once the pain wears off, I know they’ll look back at this year with nothing but fond memories. Keep your heads and your Ls up!

    RIP Big John. A legend on and off the court. Although I was a minuscule blip in his life I’m grateful to have been in his presence and gather some nuggets along the way. Basketball and America are better off because of him.

    One of the best coaches in the country. But as amazing a coach he is, he’s that much better of a friend. I’m lucky to have @JSamarrippasLMU in my life. Will forever cherish the years we spent together there as well as the friendship we continue to build as our lives evolve.

    People don’t realize the improvement this young man made from year 1 to year 4 in college. So damn proud of you!! The work was put in and the attitude was on point. Great and well deserved things are happening for you! Love you @EmanuelTerry08

    Pumped to say we have signed a pair of JUCO boys that everyone is excited about. Marcus is a wide body with skill. He’s nimble with good feet, touch, hands and physicality. Pierles is a big wing with athleticism to deck it to the rim. Plus he can flat stroke the ball from 3!!
