A Confident Statement

[Mokum]

I don't know about undefeated, but I definitely don't think we will need OT to beat the likes of Umass Lowell. In years we were really good, we would pulverize these early season cupcakes. It's a good barometer , how these games go. Going to be interesting to say the least this season.

There is no question the team was much worse after Gilbert left the line up. But there is no way to be confident that he will be healthy for any meaningful stretch of games. Any contribution we get from AG will be gravy and it can NOT be counted on.

He is going to be fine. The shoulder won't be a problem. Hi Dr. said the risk of re-injury after this particular procedure is extremely low.

The only issue will be (a) rust and (b) playing with Adams, who is much, much better on the ball than off. If Jalen can dramatically improve his catch and shoot game, the two of them will be tough to defend.

I mean Adams could be the best guard in the country. I doubt it but wouldn't bet my life against it either.

Gilbert is poised to break out. With three years off he's probably the most well rested guard in the country.
