Bouk will need a backup if he doesn't solve his fouling.

We have Cole, Gaffney, Bouk, Gilbert, Adams as guards. We have Carlton,Whaley, and Javonte Brown Ferguson as our bigs.

Interior defense and offense was pretty poor today. But they made up for it by finally hitting a good percentage of threes.

We had no one who could stop a 6’ 8” 235lb fairly mobile “big” man tonight. No one.

We need some more mobile big muscle down low.

Springs & Javonte Brown Ferguson can help next year (I’m hopeful) but I think a stud big man or a high quality grad transfer will help us make a big leap next year more than another guard.

About the only thing Adams contributed tonight was fouls.

do you still feel that way after tonight's game?

Who said over a big?

My feeling is we won't win consistently without a PG controlling the offense.

I want bigs too. But nobody said grab PGs rather than bigs.

I can’t wait for all the crickets next year from the people hating on RJ Cole.

After watching Igbanu man-handle us twice this season, we surely need a NASTY PHYSICAL MF next year to handle opponents most physical players in the New BE. That type of player will set the tone so that we won't be pushed around like a rag doll.

Need shooters. Bouk knocking down those threes was a big difference. If we had another guy like him, it really opens things up. AG hitting helped a lot also. Still want a talented big tho, it’s ok to be greedy in this case.

I may in the minority but I think we have a great team next year even if Gilbert leaves and we don’t get any new additions.

PG: Cole, Gaffney
SG: Bouknight, Adams
SF: Jackson, Polley, Wilson
PF: Akok, Springs
C: Whaley, Carlton, Brown-Ferguson

That squad is a sure-fire tournament team.

there are a lot of questions in that front court and could definitely use some more shooting on the wing.
