Too early to have value - like all pre-season rankings and similar Bracketology.

Seems they make a huge deal about AK coming back and my thoughts are:
1. Wants to show Junior year was concussion-affected
2. Probably wants to get to 16ppg (not a far cry from 14+).
3. Becomes less of "the guy" and more of "one of the guys" in terms of scoring or manufacturing a shot.

This year, teams will have to respect Silas, Solo, Alex, and Tarris. I would guess Stewart will improve to be respected by the defense, and Mullins comes in with a range of half court, so yeah, whoever gets their worst defender is going to have a good night. More options on offense while putting teams thru the ringer with motion offense is going to pay off.

Defensively we just need to get back to top 10 to be elite or top 20 to be respectable to match out top 10 likely offense.
