Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4651104, member: 5798"] All four of our freshmen are very very talented and were high school phenoms. [B]At some point, [/B]I believe ALL FOUR will pan out, dial in and become the better-than-average players that Geno and the staff want/expect them to be. More than anything else, I'm hoping [B]at least one of them[/B] makes the adjustments to "effectively" play at this level IMMEDIATELY. Which one I don't care. The sooner they adjust to playing at this "elite" level, the more depth Geno will have against other elite-level teams they'll play during the year. Geno will identify his starters and the first three off the bench once official practice begins in October. He can win consistently with 8 "solid" players during the first two months of the season. Because of their European tour this summer, everyone will get a head start on finding their place on the depth chart and in the rotation. Hopefully, one of the beat writers will travel with the team, and give us regular updates on the progress of the team collectively and the players individually. A brief post-game interview with Geno to get his thoughts/concerns on the game would also be of great interest. [/QUOTE]
