Without the orange-colored glasses . . . .
It will take major off-season development for the returning guys to match what we lose:  a first team all-league forward (Kris); second team all-league guard who was first team in the BET and likely a first round pick (Dion); a third team guard who was our senior captain and veteran leader (Scoop); and the defensive POY (Fab).    
BT had a very good set of games in the regionals -- and presumably gets better as he gets more minutes.   How much better?    If he played all season as he did in Saturday's second half,  no problem -- but he wasn't there every time out.
Neither James nor CJ is strong enough to finish inside -- neither will match what Kris did this past season.  
MCW and Cooney are frosh in terms of Big East game experience.  MCW is a passer -- is he a scorer?  Cooney as third guard compared to BT this year as third guard? 
Keita outplayed Rak in Boston -- neither one has shown much offense at this stage.  Sure, Rak might move to power forward but he hasn't shown he can put it on the floor or make a short jump shot.  Might be real good as a junior --  
Maybe the frosh can contribute, but are DC2 and Jerami Grant more ready than MCW and Rak?
 
Just saying -- we had a very special group this year.
