Happy Game Day Nova Nation! Tonight will be the final goodbye for a trio that has been immensely important to Villanova Basketball: Collin Gillespie, Jermaine Samuels, and Dhamir Cosby-Roundtree. While they may not be the only scholarship players to leave after this season, they’re the only ones who don’t have the option to come back.
First, just an acknowledgement of what this class represents. This is the final group with ties to the 2018 National Championship. And while they did play a part in winning that title, they’re more known for being the backbone of Villanova basketball following that run of two championships in three seasons.
