Actually, if you want to be technical, the 15th is on a Monday and I thought they started it on the Friday closest to the 15th, so quite possibly it may start on 10/12.
Many people have already speculated regarding next years team. We are losing a lot but we are also returning a lot. Plus we have some stud recruits coming in and the door has not been closed yet. We might even have a new head coach. I don''t think so, but it's not far fetched to throw that out there.
Player I am most looking forward to next season: MCW. 2nd choice is a tie between Brandon Triche and Trevor Cooney. I've always been in Triche's corner and I really hope he is ready to explode. However, the success of the team will depend squarely on MCW. If he is as good as we think he is, then there is no reason that we can't have another 27+ wins, but that is still asking a lot. Overall, even if Nerlens comes here, the play of the guards is still the most important.
Lots of optimism also with Rak, CJ and JSIII. I would think all of them will see more minutes and based on what we think they could do, it will really come down to consistency. They guys were really our bench, and now they will be our starters, or at least play starter minutes.
Bottom line, we should be top ten or top fifteen at the worst preseason. Not bad considering all that we have lost off of a top two team. Lots of pieces that have to mesh, but should have a lot of hungry players ready for the challenge.
It's too bad that college basketball has such a long off season but it definitely is well worth waiting for.
