This off-season is going to come down to a few big gambles on Red's part to try to elevate this team into top-5 ACC and the NCAA tournament, which I feel should be an attainable goal.

[INDENT]1) Is Westry A) healthy enough to be relied on, and B) talented enough to provide a big lift. I don't know. I know what people have said about him, but he won't have played in two seasons. That's a big risk if he's penciled in as one of The Guys.[/INDENT]

[INDENT]2) Can Bell make the a leap to a reliable scorer and sufficient defender? Southerland comes to mind as someone who Bell could be, but that was as a Senior and Southerland still wasn't really a starter and didn't play starter minutes until his senior year [I]because better players were ahead of him[/I].  Bell has flashes of being great, but so did Mookie Jones. Is replacing Bell with a transfer wing feasible and capable of being more than a marginal improvement?[/INDENT]

[INDENT]3) Which JJ do we get next season? The kid shooting 40% from 3 and better defense or not.[/INDENT]

I've posted a few times that my gut is that Red doesn't change much and most of the roster is set ... but I'm not real excited about that and getting less so as the season goes on.
