Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2213129, member: 405"] Yes, I'm counting Chukwu and Coleman as we perceived them before the season started. That's why we said "on paper". You know, any of the guys we are counting on right now could get injured, too. You say "on paper" we will be better defensively, and maybe we will with Sidibe coming in. But TT's reputation right now is for poor defense in the middle, and he will have to play a major role, because he's one of our top 2 or 3 scoring threats. You can guess about the team learning the zone and team chemistry, but those things are not "on paper". I also hope for a successful season, but over the 46 years I have been following the team, I have found that the more questions you have coming into a season, each of those questions comes back to bite you with a couple extra losses than you didn't anticipate. Right now, "on paper", we have more questions than we did last year. [/QUOTE]
