Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 5760087, member: 297"] Autry's first portal class gave us the feeling that the talent level went up in an obvious way. It didn't work out that way (Westry never had an on court impact, JJ didn't become the star we hoped) and we ended up being short on talent in places (Jesse leaving really hurt), but AT THE TIME it seemed as though we had returning talent in Mintz, Quadir, Bell, Maliq, Taylor (more due to promise coming off his freshman year) and also got an infusion of talent. Again, massive caveats that the roster isn't done yet, but to say the talent has improved we're banking on mysterious international guys being impact players, lower conference guys making the leap to ACC basketball, and losses of above average talents like Donnie Freeman not hurting us. That's not a mix to have a ton of confidence in. Tobiason looks like the only clear, unquestionable talent add. He's not enough on his own. [/QUOTE]
