Message: [QUOTE="Iluvsuebird, post: 5326434, member: 12567"] This season cannot start soon enough. This team has depth and high end talent. The question here is will we be better on ball defenders? Folks, last year was misery not because of offense. We were much, much better than fine offensively. We missed expectations because we could not defend the point of attack, or the wings, for that matter. The ironic aspect is that we have the athletes. Stewart and Ross are incredible athletes. We improved our D at the point, we have a veteran, athletic team coming back, we still have a big Bear down below, and our HC is pissed over how much we sucked defensively. I heard him say that "that s---wont happen again to one of his teams". And there is a reason he can say that: being a good defensive team is mostly about will and desire. I am convinced this team will be top 25 defensively, which means that we will be top 5 all year long. [/QUOTE]
