Message: [QUOTE="Umami Zen, post: 4672461, member: 10678"] With the obvious exception of Newton/Spencer.. We are young and talented.. Samson has been in the Program for two years but not on the floor and Diarra had limited minutes last year. Karaban played 30+ MPG and DC played regularly but limited minutes as Freshmen. We will probably start a very talented freshman at PG/SG in Castle. We have a much more challenging OOC schedule and the BE is stacked this year. IMO.. How strong is our depth/bench and does talent override youth/inexperience in how they perform? I believe the summer sessions and the European trip will go a long way in telling us how quickly that second group will gel and what our upside looks like. I think our team talent will compensate for our youth and inexperience. And you know the staff will have them well-conditioned and properly prepared for the season. Like Coach K said in the article.. Anything can happen and you can get on a run for those last 6 games as we did last year.. Speculating that we're in the top 4 BE teams by the end of the season and we're lacing them up for a deep Tournament run.. It'll be a different ride than last year but will be unique in its own way.. I think Danny is excited for the challenge..Can't wait. Edit: It will be hard but not impossible. [/QUOTE]
