From Bench to Backbone: Mariyah Noel & Xavier’s Rebuild


Listen Later

Mariyah Noel didn’t just transfer — she transformed. In this episode, we break down how the junior guard went from an end-of-the-bench reserve at Mississippi to a top scorer and emerging leader at Xavier. We explore why head coach Billi Chambers knew from the first phone call that Noel was the perfect cultural fit, how her chip-on-the-shoulder mentality is fueling the Musketeers’ rebuild, and what it takes to step into a starring role after two quiet seasons in the SEC. Plus, we zoom out to examine Xavier’s steady climb in the Big East and whether Noel is the foundation of something bigger in Cincinnati.
