I am obviously a fan of the program and the player, but I honestly just don't see it.  I'm not even sure if Coleman can dunk anymore.  There's no way he is going to average double digits on offense, let alone be our leading scorer like Christmas became.

Last year we had Roberson average 9 pts and 8 rebounds, and we had Coleman average 5 points and 4 rebounds. I think Roberson is more capable of making a leap than Coleman is, although Dajuan did show some quality down the stretch.  He played over 30 minutes twice toward the end of the season, and he had a few games where he really contributed, but his very best games come in at about 10 points and 7 or 8 rebounds.

Christmas averaged 17.5 points and 9 rebounds a game for us his final year.  Coleman won't come anywhere close to that.  If Roberson could somehow improve his confidence, I could see him turning into about a 13-14 point and 9-10 rebound per game guy.  I'm not sure he's going to get that much better, but we've got a pretty solid guy there in our front court rotation.
