CuseFan0307 wants to have it both ways - he's saying productive lower level guys can do well, and he's right about that.  But there is more risk when a guy moves up a level, right?

He's trying to say all 4 lower level guys we brought in 2 years ago were undersized.  That's nonsense.  Eddie was big, rebounded well, but played below the rim.  Like Arinze did.  But he was hurt to start the season.  Once he got healthy, our offense was good down the stretch that year.

He says Lucas Taylor was undersized (??) when he's the same size as Tobiason.  Jaquan Carlos was too small, but he was defensively player of the year in the CAA or whichever league he came from.   Jyare Davis was the same height as Folefac, although Folefac has about 20 pounds on Davis and should be more sturdy defensively.

It's a crap shoot.  That's all.  We can be selectively biased in wanting to see what we want to see in these new players.  I hope all these new guys are great, and I hope we have a killer year.

The team's not complete yet; right now, it's looking like a decent roster.  But I would be surprised if we went into the ACC with this team, and finished with a winning record.
