Message: [QUOTE="Madbiker, post: 1725498, member: 312"] Mali, Lydon and Roberson gained a national rep with their play in this tourney. The national media now considers these guys "stars". If Mali comes back I expect a top 15 pre-season ranking and a pretty damn good team next year. How good and how far they go depends on how good and how much contribution we get from Chuckwu and Battle. Both will have to play key roles next year. I really hope Mali gets and takes some good advice and returns. I can't see him being more than a 2nd round pick now and he likely would be a definite 1st rounder/top half pick with a better, more consistent year next season. Anyway, this run helps the Syracuse brand and has to help recruiting the next few years though it doesn't always manifest itself immediately. [/QUOTE]
