Message: [QUOTE="Niastri, post: 5001305, member: 722"] Or, hear me out... We need dramatic improvement from our existing players. McLeod coming back healthy and effective, Carey giving us the sophomore to junior leap we have seem so often, or Patterson surprising us after a productive redshirt would do the trick. For some reason, I'm really expecting Carey to take a massive leap. I can't put my finger on it, other than he's tall, athletic and goofy. Those guys sometimes stop being goofy and start just being tall and athletic. He's in the same boat as Cuffe, coming to Syracuse off of two years of injury. Players do get better. At any rate, Brown, Bell and Freeman make a very good core frontcourt. We're looking for a center or centers that can bang with the biggest opposing players, hold their own, and not get dominated on the boards. Red has shown an inclination to play small anyway. Any center is likely to watch Brown play in his spot for at least half the game. [/QUOTE]
