Best College Team

The Belmont men’s basketball team was robbed of an opportunity to flex its talents in the NCAA Tournament due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a shame too, since returning hero and first-year head coach Casey Alexander did a spectacular job picking up the overwhelming legacy of Rick Byrd and running with it in his own way. The former Lipscomb coach has given Bruins fans hope that the legacy of winning established by Byrd — one of the best to ever do it in the sport — isn’t in the rearview. Even though a tournament run wasn’t possible this season, that’s still something to celebrate. CORY WOODROOF
