Some of that is people being honest that few first year coaches really blow expectations out of the water. Based on the amount of time I spend on this stupid site, it seems that most posters fall into a couple of different camps:
[INDENT]1) Most, if not all, of the players are good enough, but they should return to get needed experience and time in Red's system to excel.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]2) Most, if not all, of the players are NOT good enough, need talent infusion, stat.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]3) Close! Just need a couple of portal guys to improve depth and we're there![/INDENT]
[INDENT]4) [USER=5195]FrancoPizza[/USER] (I kid, I kid ... kinda.)[/INDENT]

Personally, I'm in camp 2. I don't think they're going to win anything of note with two of the best three (likely returning) starters playing defense on a (very) part time basis. Maliq is fine, Cope is a good enough 6th man, after that, from this year's team, I don't know who else I'm excited to see return. And that is at my pessimistic. Optimistically, I think Cuffe and JJ can improve to be average guards, Bell could be all-ACC if everything clicks - but I won't hold my breath.
