[QUOTE="glandon1960, post: 547328, member: 2458"] Cole and Wright both have improved from last year - I assume that credit goes to Coach Reveno. However, neither is yet to the stage that they are ACC calliber starters - Wright is better on defensive end, Cole a lot more advanced on offensive end. My concern is not that they have not improved since being here - it is where I am see their ceiling at. Neither was a high 3* recruit - and Wright was a roll the dice (raw but gifted athlete - could he develop or not?) ... so neither being ACC calliber starter is not surprising (I know CJP has said he did not expect much from them until their Junior year). Cole could become a solid starter - to me I think of Skara from Clemson .. not a great scorer but you have to guard him and can not leave him wide open from the 3, not super athletic (may struggle against more athletic players), does screen out and go to the boards, However as of now (not knowing who we may get in the spring that can play the 4), I see Moore/Sjouland getting more minutes than Cole next year. Wright, when under control on offense - is threat on the boards and driving the baseline ... still makes way too many bad decisions (which either I see significant improvement by early next year or I think we never will) which lead to turnovers, and while his shot is better - I'd rather see AD hoist a 3 than Wright (teams are daring him to shoot from three) ... no problem if he does late in the shot clock, but otherwise he should not shoot outside 15 feet. He has played some '5' this year (for couple minutes to spell Banks) - that could be his role next year if no proven big is signed. I think Ogbanda is what he will be at this point ... emergency big .... not ACC starter, at best sub for a few minutes .... which is concern that regardless of if he stays another year or not, we don't really have anyone I see that can back up Banks next year (I expect this to be addressed in spring signing ..maybe a grad transfer). He got enough minutes early that we know what we have in him. [/QUOTE]
