Jadin Booth - Goes for 34 in losing effort Booth chipped in 34 points (10-20 FG, 9-17 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Monday's 85-72 loss to Tulane.
Impact Booth has been out of the D-1 ranks since his freshman campaign with Omaha back in 2020-21. Safe to say this was quite the return going off for 34 points and knocking down nine treys. Samford has been one of the most electric offenses in college basketball over the last couple years and it appears Booth is the guy who is going to be pulling the trigger a lot this year. South Carolina State is next up on Friday.

Impact Faulkner transferred from Lipscomb to Samford this offseason. The forward broke his foot in January of 2025, but it looks as though he's fully over the injury. He averaged 10.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 17.5 minutes with Libscomb, and should take on a bigger role with Samford.
