As first broken with Jeff and Talia Goodman on the Field of 68 Podcast, Rice guard Quincy Olivari is headed to Xavier next season. Olivari will bring a much needed outside scoring touch to bolster Xavier’s attack after the departures of Souley Boum, Adam Kunkel, Colby Jones, and Jack Nunge, who combined to make 231 three pointers last season. In four years at Rice, Olivari has made 232 of them and has shot them at a 37% clip, with his 87 made threes last season coming on 36% shooting. Olivari is a dangerous spot up shooter, but he is far from a one dimensional player, having seen his ability to get to the rim see a 10% jump in shots taken at the rim from his Junior to Senior seasons.
