The majority of attention around the 2018-19 Villanova basketball team will be focused on Eric Paschall, Phil Booth, and five-star freshman Jahvon Quinerly, but CBS Sports singles out another Wildcat worth watching, sophomore Collin Gillespie.

Here's what Kyle Boone had to say about Gillespie:

"Jahvon Quinerly, Eric Paschall and Phil Booth are going to get plenty of pub, but rising sophomore Collin Gillespie should be getting mention as an impact player for the reigning NCAA champs, too. He shot 39.4 percent from the 3-point line as a freshman in limited run, and has a chance to break into the starting rotation in his second season."

Gillespie performed admirably in his freshman season and certainly stands to get plenty of playing time, so the opportunity will be there for him to make an impact. Gillespie's progression during his time at Villanova will be big for the program, so we'll certainly paying attention to what year two looks like.

Here's a link to the full article for those interested.
