That team had a lot more proven talent than this one, and a ton more experience.  But maybe the most important difference is that it had a second option in Wallace, and a third option in Lloyd (who was really good that year), and a fourth option in Jackson.  That's all really missing this year.

Also, that was not a good defensive team, but had a lot of offensive firepower.  The best case scenario for this year's squad is probably the opposite.  (Also, other than Hill being a little short for a center, the 95 team doesn't seem like a small team at all?  Wallace was big for a college 4, Luke probably average for a college 3, Poetry big for a 2 and Lloyd big for a point.  JB Reaf was  a big guy).

If you wanted a comparison year, I really think the best one is '01-02, hopefully without the drama.  Relying a lot on a couple perimeter guys for offense (there Shump and Williams), while giving young guys important developmental time.  Not a lot of offense from the 5, but some good defensive play.  A bit of a question mark at the 1.
