Aaaaaaaand, they’re off!

Here’s to a great season…

Some tidbits on Green Bay from HCBS interview:

The Phoenix have 10 newcomers this season, Gottlieb’s 2nd.

Green Bay’s roster features two international players, four true freshmen, and six transfers. One of the transfers, Ramel Bethea, is 29 and the oldest player in college basketball. He joined the Phoenix after a year at MiraCosta College and five years in the military.

“Kudos to him for serving our country. I mean, that’s probably the coolest thing about it from my standpoint,” said Self,
