No one said that 100% who ever came in could contribute immediately. They may have been the hope. But with the NCAA pushing off the transfer rule from this year to next. The landscape of college basketball change.

And no one is writing of this year. Several people have reacted to that statement.

Even without immediately eligible players we have 11 eligible players. Akok could be able to play for the second half of the season. If we assume he medical red shirts then you have 10. Yes Polley is coming back from injury too, but the chances are probably he'll be able to contribute this year more than the small possibility that he has a setback and misses the year too.

Call it 9.5 players if you want. But that's more than we had to finish the season and we're more talented than last season.

Hurley will figure out the 4 spot. Either Springs is a day 1 starter, Whaley/Carlton can play together, we bring a grad transfer, or we go small like we had to out of necessity last year. We can still have a successful season with all of those options.
