Coming off a loss Saturday to Villanova in a game where Xavier's men's basketball team didn't play up to its standards, should make for an eager group of Musketeers when they take the Cintas Center floor Tuesday night against DePaul (7 p.m., CBS Sports).
"We better respond, I know that," Xavier coach Travis Steele said Monday at his pre-game press conference. "If you’re not ready to play tomorrow night then I’ve got to really question who you are as a person and why you’re in our program. Again, we’ve got a lot to play for. We’ve got a really talented team in DePaul coming in here to the Cintas Center.
