Tony Skinn has George Mason rolling with Jim Larrañaga in mind

Tony Skinn didn’t know exactly how he was going to do it as he was named the head coach at George Mason in 2023, but “one of the first initiatives” that he set out to accomplish was finding a way, any way to honor and “celebrate” Jim Larrañaga. Larrañaga’
