Chris Mack left for Louisville after nine seasons at his alma mater, and his top assistant, Travis Steele, will slide over and assume control of a team that lost a ton of production. Leading scorer Trevon Bluiett and two other seniors — J.P. Macura and Kerem Kanter — who averaged double figures a year ago are gone. In addition, Kaiser Gates, who could have been Xavier’s top scorer this season, decided to turn pro and went undrafted.
Gonzaga and Xavier have reached this point before.
