Thanks for the laugh 😃 I did not realize how much I needed that.

We did an interview with Rafael on the GW Basketball Insiders show. He gave us some insight on his background and his approach to the game. There's a bunch of great stuff in here so make sure to check it out! Also some discussion of seeding and the women's coaching opening.

Good job fellas. One aspect of this team that is particularly appealing is the player/player chemistry and CC's influence on them. Of course we get frustrated with missed 3's and free throws but there is a certain humility that rises above it all. No matter how this season goes it's been nice to see their development. As an aside, I particularly enjoyed Higgins the cat and the home remedy commercials with miracle results to Raise High.

A little bird flew into my house and told me that Castro is likely to be back next year. Don't ask me who the bird was but I think it would know.

If the above pans out, the bird would be the bluebird of happiness!
It's great if Rafael realizes that GW is the best place for his future basketball
and professional success.
