Dropping knowledge.
This is the kind of stuff that's good to know. Didn't realize Tulane had some transfers waiting in the wings.
And as far as UNO, I'm sure they'll be solid. I just knew that Thomas was huge for them last year and they need someone to fill that void.

Travin Thibodeaux is crazy athletic for that conference, and honestly very talented. Extremely skilled passer for a guy his size. He's a hot head and he struggles to keep it together sometimes, though, as we saw in their First Four NCAA Tournament game last season.
Michael Zeno can play a little bit, too. UNO won the league last season because of their defense, no question. They'll still be able to defend the rim. They'll be physical. Their perimeter defense will be a question mark, as Nate Frye and Christavious Gill caused a lot of havoc last year up front. That's where those two will be missed most. Erik Thomas could do it all, but he'll be missed most on offense, just because they won't really have anyone who can consistently get their own shot and finish. They ran an inside-out offense last season, and he was the focal point. With Thibodeaux's passing ability, we'll see if he can slide into that same role and do well. If not, they may have to change the offense altogether. We'll see.
