[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 445278, member: 2299"] It's hard to project this team because we'll be relying on a lot of guys who have big ?s. In fact, pretty much everyone. Jose and Haywood are coming back from injuries. Devoe is a freshman. Gueye/Ogbonda/Wright/Cole will be needing to play bigger roles than they have proven to be able to do so. The rest are role players or freshmen. If things go our way we could have a great backcourt duo in Jose and Devoe, possibly the best PG situation we've had since Bynum/Jack. If Haywood can provide the wing scoring that could be a great backcourt which can take us a long way with the way college basketball is today. AD has shown flashes of being about as effective scoring as Lammers was when we tried to focus him a bit more, and there is a good chance that Wright/Cole make big jumps with the help of coach Rev who has a great track record. Best case scenario for starters is we have one of the best backcourts in the conference, a serviceable starter at the center spot, and perhaps the mip player in conference starting at the 4. We also have decent, though not great, options for backups. In this case I could see us finishing middle of the road or even slightly better in the ACC and making the NCAA by virtue of coming together the right time in ACC play. On the other hand it could be that Jose isn't the same or hasn't developed like we expect because of the injury, Haywood is too slow to be as effective as he needs to be, and Devoe gets the freshmen yips and needs time to adjust. It's also possible that without the threat of Lammers, AD isn't as effective and gets in foul trouble too often, and Wright/Cole still aren't ready for starter minutes. In this case I could see us starting real slow and the only redeeming part of the season being peaks at what the future could hold for our young players. IMO we're likely between the two. A returning Okogie would have done a lot to take pressure off others this year, but as it stands I can't help but think that we'll still be looking ahead a year throughout the year. I'd say around 8-10 in conference with a couple of nice victories towards the end. Maybe an NIT trip depending on how well we come out in the OOC. [/QUOTE]
