Congrats to our guy @Josiah_Moseley0 on winning Texas Gatorade Player of the Year ! ✌️🔥
3 points from #Villanova vs #VCU 1. This game followed the same script as most games from this season, so frustrating. We did not get better as the season progressed 2. Dixon played well & left it all on the floor 3. Huge offseason decisions loom (coach & roster) #NovaNation
Tom Crean (@TomCrean) just went in on teams electing not to play in the NIT. And he’s spot on.
#Villanova should have 100% accepted a #NIT invite. Anyone who thinks otherwise is crazy. Another game or games for a young coach to get experience, more game experience for Armstrong & Hausen, do or die game experience of a tournament. All these things can only help the future.
3 points from #Villanova vs #DePaul 1. Gross game not a lot of positives. Survive & advance I guess? 2. JMo & Eric Dixon willed us to victory. They made plays on both ends down the stretch 3. Huge opportunity to beat a great team tomorrow. Gotta play desperate #NovaNation #GoCats
Is Eric Dixon the last vestige of the Villanova Way? Villanova hopes not. Dixon is likely nearing the end of the road at Villanova, and Villanova is trying to figure out its path in the new world. inquirer.com/college-sports…
Ready for the @TheGarden 😤
3 Points from #Villanova vs #Creighton 1. Not being ready to play at the start killed us all season. Can’t afford to spot a top 10 team 24 point lead 2. What I wouldn’t give to have a go-to stud like Alexander 3. Gotta win 2 minimum in BE tourney to even have a chance #NovaNation

The Villanova ATTITUDE Award - given to the player who constantly brings a positive attitude to our program EVERY DAY. This year’s winners are @JordanLongino and @BigEballer_ !
Think isn't the dunk you think it is. Villanova still fancies itself a better basketball program than Kansas State. It intends to bring in a player better than Hausen, who is an outstanding shooter with holes in his game who had no starting spot on a BE team that wants to win.
Losing players to Kansas St. The sign of a healthy program
“What was it like when guys would play for 1 school for 4 years?”
TJ Bamba plans to enter the portal as Villanova’s roster makeover continues. A lot of work ahead for Kyle Neptune and Baker Dunleavy: inquirer.com/college-sports…
Big blow. Bamba, behind Dixon was probably nova’s 2nd best player last season
Villanova's TJ Bamba tells me that he's entering the transfer portal.
Villanova’s men and women both have six each in the portal/draft. It’s not just Kyle Neptune.
Another surprising and gutting decision. Felt like Bamba bought in the most of almost any guy last year. Picked up the offensive slack throughout the season. It’s a huge loss, and now Longino remains as the only significant returning contributor
BREAKING: Villanova guard TJ Bamba is entering the transfer portal, his agency NEXT Sports tells @On3sports. The 6-5 senior averaged 10.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game this season. on3.com/transfer-porta…
We wanted a new roster, we’re getting a new roster. Hopefully we realize what went wrong with how we built the team last offseason and do things differently now. This is college basketball in 2024.
All basketball season everyone was complaining that the roster wasn’t good enough and now we’re mad we aren’t running it back with the same roster?
Villanova’s newest Wildcat Tyler Perkins has a little bit of Jalen Brunson in his game, but that’s not what should most excite fans. The best part is Perkins has three years of eligibility remaining. He could be a blueprint for a new Villanova way. Story:inquirer.com/college-sports…
From Tyler to the fans in this article: “Let's turn it around. Let's win and get back to what it was a couple years ago. I am ready to do whatever it takes” That’s the type of attitude we need right now. I’m STOKED to see him rep Nova!
Tyler Perkins discusses his Villanova decision with VUSports: 247sports.com/college/villan… Much thanks @Tylerperkins_5 for chatting with VUSports! #NovaNation
NEWS: Penn transfer guard Tyler Perkins has committed to Villanova, he tells @On3sports. The 6-4 freshman averaged 13.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game this season. on3.com/college/villan…
@NovaReportMBB At least one PG and 1 rim protector. Then give me the best three guys you can reel in at any position.
Tyler Perkins to Villanova.. here’s how you need to look at it.. TP is going to be a Sophmore he’s not a “move the needle guy yet”. He Avg 13pts 5rbs 2ast as a Freshman. 35% from 3.. You Bring him to Nova along with 3 incoming freshman now you have a core that you can possibly…
Many (most?) players would have decommitted when Robinson-Earl committed for same class and same position … Dixon did the smart thing, realizing longer road was better for him. Worked out for Nova too.
Nova Nation! Thank you for the support all year! Incredible place with incredible people! 💙💙
@BigEballer_ Best of luck! Thank you for all the great memories you’ve given Nova Nation! Once A Wildcat, Always A Wildcat 😺✌🏼
