Mims and Coach Henderson speaking very highly of T.J. and team.
“I was pretty excited. Even just being from Iowa and playing an Iowa school, I think that kind of even makes it even better. I’m really excited for this opportunity. I have a pretty special connection with T.J. He taught me a lot. I was only with him for a year, but he taught me a lot,” SDSU senior guard Matt Mims said.
“There’s just a lot of respect. It’s exciting to be playing close to home, it’s great for our fans. We have a couple of Nebraska guys, so to be able to get down there and play in front of their families is pretty special. But then obviously with coach Otzelberger, just the amount of respect that I have for him. The opportunities that he’s given me in this profession are just really endless,” SDSU head coach Eric Henderson said.
The Jackrabbits will be playing close to home in Omaha, Nebraska, and they’ll be playing against a familiar face.
