Until they do that, there's no point in picking them to finish higher. What they have going for them: -Incredible potential in the backcourt -New culture that everyone seems to have bought into hook, line and sinker -A down year in the conference - which with some development from a few select guys - we could make some noise in March in the conference tournament Everything else is a big, fat question mark. Literally everything. I love what i'm seeing from Cobb on social media and the like - but I dunno what that's going to be. You can't really depend on Freshman to do much more than add some depth at this point. We lack a ton of depth and frankly talent up front. Sure, I'm hoping they give enough to be serviceable, but players have a certain talent capacity and that's that - and I don't think anyone we have is going to be a real difference maker. I *hope* i'm wrong big time, I just don't see it. I'm hoping for 20 wins this season and a decent amount of post-season basketball with a big step forward in recruiting. Give me that and year-1 under Hurley is a success. Expecting a lot past that is just depending on way too many questions to be answered positively. [/QUOTE]
