power forward and center
Who are the big front line players we are recruiting that have solid offensive skills? We are going to need players who can step right in and start since we currently don't have any on the roster to replace Clark and Washington.

You should know by now that we aren't getting a player to come in year 1 and start. We don't even let Broome start over an inferior player, despite having been in the program for a year first. So I'd bet my life for $100 that no one is coming in cold and starting.

Those are the hardest players to get, especially in the AAAAC. How many bigs that have solid offensive skills from day 1 has Cronin gotten? Gates, Mike williams? Ronald Allen? How many solid offensive bigs are in the league?

Washington sat out his first year in the program. Unless something crazy happens, I wouldn't expect someone who has no current affiliation with our program to come in and start at the 4. We can pretend that might happen if we want to though. |

so your saying we'll be playing 3 on 5 on the offensive end next year if Evans returns. Brooks and Scott have zero ability on that end of the floor. It's amazing how consistently ineffective they have been. Clark and Washington both started the first year of eligibility in the program. If Mick doesn't have a magic wand and can't find another big to bring in to start next year, it will be a major recruiting failure considering our ranking and new arena. And with the lineup you list above, good luck winning 15 games.
