And Bird was impressed with what the young Huskies showed over the three days.

"They both did great," Bird said. "There's a tendency for young players, particularly college players, when they come into a camp like this to be a little nervous, a little hesitant. But they were confident. They knew exactly what they were doing out there. They played very composed, they showed a lot of composure for young players and it was impressive to see that."

"I thought that I worked hard but these players have made me see that there's a whole other level to working hard," Collier said. "They make sure that they're prepared to play and they start right in warmups. There's no going through the motions. They take it seriously that they're 100 percent ready to go. That's something I want to take back to school with me."

The article also had news about at least part of the 18-19 schedule:

The Huskies' 2018-19 non-league schedule is not complete, but they do have contracts to play Baylor, California, Louisville, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Seton Hall, and South Carolina along with Saint Louis. They are also scheduled to participate in the Paradise Jam in the Virgin Islands.

Of course the Paradise Jam will likely be held somewhere other than the VI's.

Clear evidence Geno has gone soft!

The 2017 Paradise Jam for men has been moved to Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA. Lynchburg? Not quite the USVI!

By 2018, it’s possible that the Jam will be back at their regular site. I hope!

That's over a year from now - hopefully St. Thomas is back to ship-shape by then.
