All this team needs is

[Capt. Tuttle]

Better talent (especially shooters)
Better (some) leaders on the floor and in the locker room
Cajones
Attitude
Desire
Pride


Other than that, they are fine.

Right now they are like a lot of teams: if they shoot really well, ( an anomaly) they can play with/beat almost anyone.

The drastic fix: clone Grant' hustle, heart and desire and Fair 's basketball IQ, and transplant them to Rak and MCW, respectively. Those 2 would be 1st team AA with those attributes.

A little quickness wouldn't hurt.

Got me to thinking. I usually can't stand all the posts about next year and the future when we are in the heat of a season, but if we can't shoot this year, what are going to do NEXT year? We lose our 2 best shooters and most likely our point guartd. If silent G is not the next coming of Wes, we might be in trouble. A ton of talent, but not a whole lot of offense. CJ & Grant are not perimiter players and I'm afraid will try to fill that role much like Kris Jo did, without a lot of success. How good of a shooter is Ennis? OK, now back to our regularly scheduled mid-season meltdown...

Tend to agree. I think this being a down year in college hoops has teams looking better than they really are. In normal years we would be a solid top 15-25 team but nowhere near the top 5-10.

We still have a shot come March if we get hot but with the way we have played on the road since Louisville makes me lean towards a sweet 16 and done kind of year.
