Thanks for doing this. Will is such a good guy, and it's great to hear he is still making a living doing what he loves to do.

We have not had a bad interviewee yet. They're all different, but that's sort of the fun with this. With will, he's definitely still playing at a really high level. Euro League is really, really good competition and Will is a focal point of his team. He's still going very, very strong for sure.

Would love for him to get an assistant coaching job here if he wants one. As Vlad said in his interview, what Will Thomas was able to do over time by adding to his game and basically remaking himself as a professional is something I'd love to have for whatever big comes through these doors.

Also, we need to broadcast Natalie Butler's praise of GMU and how much they worked with her.

Heading into tomorrow's game (hopefully) just wanted to say on Thanksgiving eve, thank you to you all who have supported us thus far by listening or watching our pod. It's meant a lot to us to be able to go even this far with your support, and we're very much looking forward to seeing what is next with y'all along for the ride.

Our latest episode is out on our YouTube Channel! We sat down with Fallyn Stephens' college head coach, Missy Traversi. Easy to see why Missy has had a seriously upward trajectory in her career. Honestly? I think we'll hear from her as a D-I head coach sooner rather than later. Remember to help us out by liking, subscribing, sharing, commenting...all that good stuff. We love to hear from you guys, so lets get social.

Our latest pod is out with former URI standout Delroy James. And, frankly, this is just the beginning of our content with him as we had so many great discussions. Here is our pod about his playing career overseas (with some mentions of Will Thomas), and we will also be adding additional stuff to our YouTube page as "Expat Extras" in the coming days.

Thanks for listening/watching wherever you get our content, and make sure you like, subscribe, hit the bell/alert wherever you get our stuff!

We've got some things in the works for our next episode, but here's a teaser you won't want to miss. We sat down with our second Olympian (also from Nigeria), Shane Lawal to talk about his career overseas. Guy has a fascinating journey as a "late bloomer" in college to going overseas and playing at some of the highest levels before injuries more or less forced him to retire. We did talk about his time at Real Madrid in Euro League and the success he had in being instrumental to getting Nigeria their second Olympic basketball bid...but some of the tribulations he had early in his pro career was wild.
