I will say this, we'll just have to wait and see.
I could very well be wrong and this team could actually be pretty good. Maybe they win 20+ games. To be honest, if Miller can even get them into the NIT then I would consider that a success. Just because I'm negative about the job he's done thus far does not mean I'm putting unfair expectations on him. If he can this team to top 5 in the conference and win 18 or more games I'm a happy camper in year 1. All this said, I think this is around a .500 level team as it sits. If you pick some abitrary ranking system then I would consider them probably somewhere between 75 and 125. It looks to me like it's got mid major, and not a good one, written all over it. I hope I'm wrong. I really do.

In Koval's junior season at Central Arkansas, they played at Baylor, Georgetown, Duke, Wichita St, and Marquette. He averaged 4 blocks in those games, and he scored 21 against Georgetown.

The defensive wing played at Clemson. You think the ACC is the Little Sisters of the Poor? These are bizarre takes.

Define "plenty". Then compare that number to the number of spots that top 50 teams are looking to fill. We got 1 guy who would start on a lot of top 50 teams if healthy (Newman), and another who would start on most teams that don't have an upperclassman big blocking his path (Oby). How many teams are doing better than us in the portal? Do you think there are 50?

We had 4 coaching spots to fill and 6 players spots, for a total of 10 spots. 9 of those have been filled now. I'm judging him on that. It doesn't matter if it's one week, one month, two months, or 6 months. He's elected to fill out this staff and roster in a way that I don't think is at all impressive. It's as simple as that. Maybe he really turns on the recruting next year. Maybe I'm wrong about these UNCG guys. Who knows? All I can talk about right now is what I've seen thus far. And IMHO what I've seen leaves a whole lot to be desired. I guess we'll have to wait and see. I hope I'm wrong. I do apologize for continued to defend my take. I've probably made my point by now but I keep getting pulled back towards the conversation. I know I'm in the minority, so I'll stop now. PS If it's any consolation I could NOT be any more excited for football. I can't wait. I'd hibernate these next 3 months if I could. Go Bearcats!

It should have clear when I referenced Little Sisters of the Poor after laying out a Southern Conference schedule that I was under the impression it was a UNCG player you were speaking of. Sorry I haven't got my calculator out to run on the numbers so I can immediately identify who it is you're referencing. My bad for being so bizzare.

Not to mention you didn't even know who the hell Sedz was talking about. Who did you think it was? Do you know anything about these players? |

UNCG - North Carolina Clemson - North Carolina Wake - North Carolina It makes me question if this coach can recruit on a national level. Yeah, I did not know who he was talking about. All he said was we picked up one of the best defensive wings in the portal. I'm sorry I'm not analytics obsessed like some of the people on here and wasn't immediately able to discern that meant Newman III. I'm finally bowing it out. Promise. I've made my point, and anyone is more than welcome to disagree with it. We'll all have to wait and see. I'll leave you guys back to your board now. Go Bearcats.
