Bulkier Amari McCottry chasing his ceiling and is 'at his floor less' as he prepares for third season

SLU guard was 3rd team All-Atlantic 10 as sophomore

His head shrouded in a towel, left knee iced and disposition dampened by a season-ending loss, Amari McCottry was overwhelmed but willing to address the future.

Instead of deflecting, the SLU guard didn’t take any time responding to a question about his intent to stick by coach Josh Schertz for another season after the Billikens had lost to Michigan in the NCAA Tournament.

McCottry has been on the receiving end of criticism and praise in his two seasons. He knew that day he was in.
