I asked Dan Hurley about how his Catholic faith shapes him as a coach. "My faith, in tough times, gives me the strength to endure the difficulties, the challenges that life presents... it gives me a humility to not celebrate these great successes and to live with humility."

@BrysonWright3 I really want Ja to be great (again) but I am not sure Ja wants to be great anymore or at least in Memphi.

@MikeButts Yeah it’s not completely confirmed but wouldn’t be until next summer at the earliest and I doubt they would move that fast

You simply cannot overstate the legacy Brad Underwood is actively building at Illinois. He took a program that had fallen off the national radar and turned them back into a legit program. He is cementing himself as one of the best to ever do it in Champaign.

@MikeButts This would mean he’s on the team for at least the next 2 years though. Feel like it will be resolved by then

Bennett Stirtz IS Cinderella. Two D-2 offers out of HS. Goes to NW Missouri State. Follows Coach to Drake, leads Bulldogs to NCAA tourney. Coach goes to Iowa, he doesn’t go to NBA Draft, instead takes millions less to follow McCullum to Iowa. Leads Hawkeyes to Elite 8.

'Pistol Pete' Maravich sharing his testimony of faith in Jesus Christ in 1987 less than one year before his death at the age of 40: "I want all of you to know this tonight about Peter Maravich. You may never have heard of me. It makes no difference. I'm just one person on this earth saved by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. I want you to know this, that the change that came into my life was Jesus Christ. It was not winning. I won all my life. I won every trophy, award, everything you can think of, but every time I won something, I wanted something more. I had to win again. It wasn't money, because money'll buy you everything but happiness. It'll pay your fare at every place but Heaven. Material things—I've driven everything some of you strive for from Rolls Royces to BMWs to Mercedes to Porsches. It wasn't religion because in the name of religion, Jesus Christ was placed upon that cross. And the purest thing about Christianity is the fact that it's your choice. You can't work. You can't earn. I knew that, and I understood it now. I want you to know this. The last thing I'd like to say is this, next week I'll be inducted into the Hall of Fame. I'll get that big ring. In fact, it's a bigger ring than I would have got for the championship, but I'll tell you something about all the awards. They all pale to the glory of Christ and what He's done in my life. It's amazing what He has done in my life. I wouldn't trade my position in Christ for a thousand NBA championships or a thousand Hall of Fame rings or for a hundred billion dollars. There's nothing like the joy of Jesus Christ in your life."

Impressive for Missouri high school basketball. That’s what happens when you have a strong coaching organization. @MbcaCoaches

@PowerMizzoucom Basketball is unlike football. Hard to sponsor a kid with no connections or history with a city.

Mentioned it on @929espn, but asked Taj Gibson about his dialogue with Tuomas Iisalo as his soundboard. Really good stuff. "Coach T is a phenomenal coach. He's in that tier of the young future. He's the future. I was in Charlotte last year with Coach Charles Lee. Now I'm here. The last three years, I've been around some good young coaches, and then now just being up under him and really seeing how he moves. He just knows his stuff. He knows his X's and O's like the back of his hand. I remember one thing I told him, every time we talk, I'm gonna piggyback off you. I'm here to be that veteran that is here to supply and do whatever you need me to do." "This is a family oriented team, and we're in a special moment right now, as far as getting these young guys prepared and getting these young guys ready for the next level."
