I don't care how he gets in, I would have a quick hook on Solo if he's turning the ball over or taking bad shots. Ross should play close to 25 in this game.

Not sure the 2's are any better than the 3's, and the not sure the 5's aren't better than the 4's. I see Alabama, Arkansas and StJ's better than any of the 4's.

Crushed, they would have easily gotten through Duke and NCSt with him. He was the heart and soul of that team.

I can't disagree with that, I'm just saying I'm not sure the makeup of this team has changed drastically. I'm also not sure how great a QB Silas is. I think he's a very talented PG, but I haven't really seen him assume the QB role with all that much depth yet. He's a great defender, and much...

Is this roster that much different? We had Tarris last year. AK & Solo starters. Mullins is in effect, not much different physically to McNeeley. So then it's just Silas.

@HW611 I've heard anything from he's a product of talent around him, to he should have been let go after 23 so AJX could come back......

People like to downplay Newton, but he was such a calm floor leader with amazing vision, and such a great passer/rebounder. He wasn't the most athletic kid in the world, but played with such smarts/vision/calm.

Yet he has three NC returners back and 3 McD AA's and he's claiming they're broke. He's going to have a fairly mass exodus this year, with at least 4 starters gone. Tugler is a junior and I've seen him in second round mocks. I know they have a big coming in next year, but feels like a bit of a...

I’m always shocked how Sampson wins so many games. His offense is really hard to watch and requires dominating the offensive glass and hitting long 3s. This year’s team is more reliant on freshmen than any of his other teams and I think it is showing on defense (relative to his high standards)...

We've lost three in a row, and stylistically Pitino presents a roster/style that give us trouble. Until we show we can figure it out, I kinda get it. I think we win too, but it's going to be close.

100% w/you. We need to see how this team man's up against team's bigger/stronger than them, because the top three teams all are, and all the teams with the best odds to win it are. How do they offset those disadvantages? What is Hurley's playbook? Nova was not a matchup issue at all.

This will get tested this year. I get a feeling it might now play out that way this year. Early season, Pitino had a lot of random parts he was trying to figure out. The committment to Darling has been a game changer for them, as he's playing Pitino style ball and has been a dawg out there. He...

They have been pounding them though - and its a much better league schedule than we've played. So it's hard to call it both ways. Florida has a NC front court, and 4 man guard rotation where they'd need their two primary guards to play well. They had a chance to win at Cameron. The SEC has a...

Yup - starting our roster with Reibe next year really means we need to ensure whoever the 4 is, they can board.

I wouldn't be. Both have flaws, but also have upside runs. If you don't think theyre making it, then I guess you're imagining a Final 4 of 4 one seeds? Someone up there made a good point on Underwood lacking the coaching chops, Golden has them. Florida has 6 losses, only 1 in last 13 games. 3...
