With a Nov. 1 home exhibition against Georgia College upcoming, the Georgia Southern men's basketball team is gearing up for the 2017-18 season with high expectations and a veteran-heavy roster.
Been there, done that
With all five starters from last season returning, the Eagles' roster will feature five seniors and six juniors this season, in what head coach Mark Byington called the "culmination" of his recruiting classes at GS. The current seniors were Byington's first recruiting class.
They include forwards B.J. Gladden and Coye Simmons along with guards Mike Hughes, Jake Allsmiller and Tione Jones.
