This team reminds me of the team 2 years ago.  There are just so many unknowns.  Until we see how this unit works together and how well they play defense it's pretty much impossible to predict how well this team is going to do.  The problem with the cream puffs you get early in the schedule is sometimes they make you think the team is much better than it is.  I think the one or two challenging games in December will give the best insight for the January through March games.  When those January games roll around it becomes much harder to get wins.  I expect Thompson and Battle to be great.  It would be nice if Moyer, Howard, and Chukwu surprise to the upside.  The incoming freshmen are always challenged by the speed of D1 CBB.  And the transfers have to learn how to play 2-3 zone defense so they are mixed bag.  At this point, I expect this year's squad to be about the same as last year's squad, maybe worse, until I am happily proven otherwise.
