Experience and maintain our huge Size.It's always difficult to discuss this stuff b/c in this day and age of college hoops anything can happen from one year to the next. But that's a lot of talent and, perhaps more importantly, a lot of experience. Hughes as a third-year guy, Howard as a fourth-year, Chuckwu as a fifth-year guy and then Marek, Brissett and Sidibe back for year 2. That's about as much experience as you can get these days.
Agreed. Wasnt necessarily the point of my post thoughI'm not sure Dion really "embraced" it. He was the number 4 overall pick with major talent, he either played well or transferred and ends up being a nobody who never made the NBA.
After tonight is anyone sure Frank will be back next year?
C'mon... Lol...
I'm not laughing, just shaking my head.But will we still hear your laugh at the end of the year?

It doesn't happen until I declare "He gone," and we have a ways to go before that happens.After tonight is anyone sure Frank will be back next year?

Yes. Frank is a 2 guard at heart. He will replace battle for sure.I think this could help Frank a lot as well, might be great for him to focus on scoring rather than focusing on 4 other guys.
Probably just wishful thinking on my part, but is it really a foregone conclusion that Battle leaves? He's not getting a ton of national publicity (yet) and this is a really deep draft class.
This draft is going to have Mikal Bridges, Lonnie Walker, Gary Trent Jr., Troy Brown, Lagerald Vick, Grayson Allen, Allonzo Trier, Rawle Alkins, Hami Diallo, and maybe a few others as potential SGs in the late lotto to end of the first round territory. That's a lot of competition for Battle to be confident in being a lock for the first round, but obviously we still have a lot of season left.
If Battle comes back, Hughes could potentially swing between the 2 and the 3. If he doesn't he'll probably just play the 2.

Perspective is a good thing. Let's see what the guy can do against better competition before suggesting he would go pro. Again, come on.
I certainly agree that we need to see what Frank does this year against the better teams. That's why I only asked if people are sure he won't be going pro. To say that you are sure means you expect him to fail against the better teams. Remember that we've seen some remarkable transformations in recent years, especially since the construction of the Melo Center. .
He doesn’t look like an NBA type of PG especially from a speed/explosion standpoint. I could however maybe see him garner some interest if he potentially plays the 2 next to Carey next season and his scoring goes nuts. I could see him potentially as a poor man’s Larry Hughes.

Nonsense.
He might not "fail" and could prove to be a terrific college player, but that outcome is hardly correlated with whether he proves to be a viable NBA prospect. Lots of great college players never sniff the NBA.
The notion of him going pro after this year is far fetched, beyond belief.
It was last year. This year, I'm not so sure.
Keep in mind that you don't need to be a "viable NBA prospect" to declare for the draft. You just need to think your. And if frank has a good year, he might think that way. Basically anybody who has a good year for a power conference school is going to consider it. I hope he stays but I've hoped a lot of other guys would stay, too.

SWC, I think with your avatar changes, folks may have forgotten who you are and your wisdom. Being I dont look at names, it took me a moment myself.
Speaking of names(to telegraph the segue for those who might otherwise miss the link), it's amazing how much we link to the names and the pasrt, vs the present + potential.
