I am as much an SU fan as anyone else on this forum but I tend to be a tad bit more realistic.  This is a team returning all its players and adding one highly rated Freshman (Carey), one less regarded Freshman (Boehiem) who may be under-rated but who also might be red-shirted, and a middle tier transfer (Hughes). Last year's team was highly flawed and barely made it into the NCAA tournament. 3 wins in the tournament and expectations for this year's team are soaring.  We have a starting center who had trouble holding onto the ball and even when he caught it was offensively challenged.  Brissett shot 35% from the field.  Dolezaj for most of the year was invisible on offense and pushed around under the boards.  Howard was much better but still inconsistent.  Battle shot 32% from the 3-point line.  Sidibe is still an unknown as far as his potential.  Most games the team had more turnovers than assists which is not good.  Point is this team must improve quite a bit on offense to be able to play consistently with the big boys. Each player has great room for improvement.  If that happens, THEN we can talk about great expectations.  But like everyone else, I am looking forward to a great season.
