Deep Thoughts, by Buzz Studley
It's early, but it kind of feels like an important game tonight for St. Thomas to "steady the ship" a little bit after a pair of uncharacteristic uncompetitive losses @ Saint Mary's & Washington State. The Tommies take a nation-best 19-game home winning streak (tied with Akron) into the contest, and they'll be facing what should be an improved Green Bay squad (#311 T-Rank) coached by second-year head coach Doug Gottlieb. The Toms are shooting just 26.7% from 3-point territory and need to get more scoring from sources other than sophomore Nolan Minessale (21.3 ppg) and redshirt freshman Nick Janowski (17.3 ppg).
