Xavier basketball was rolling to a nerve-wracking end to the season, then a global pandemic hit the brakes so hard I went right into the windshield. We’ve shaken ourselves off a bit here and will continue, somewhat belatedly, with our breakdown of one of the weirdest Xavier seasons on record.
Xavier was lacking a go-to guy after Naji's freshman year when Tre, JP, the coach and most of the staff, and pretty much every high-usage player graduated or moved on. How you see what Naji did in the two years since depends largely on how you want to perceive the young man.
