To add to this, while 5 stars are great, when they leave early it is not easy to build an identity as a program nor cohesiveness. I was recently talking to some other folks in my company that work in Kentucky. They thought it was funny that while watching an NBA game the announcers mentioned a player went to Kentucky and they completely forgot about them.

For Cuse fans we tend to have guys get drafted after 2 years or longer. (the recent spat of 1 and done players is not the norm, but may be becoming the norm) For the zone to be effective it is important to have upperclassmen that have mastered it. As we have seen too many times the freshman will always have moments where they look lost on defense, but they typically put it together by the end of the year.

Long story short I love the versatility of players we have been getting lately and am excited to see what combinations we utilize in different scenarios, although I do not think Jimmy B will break away from the norm of playing 7 guys, but with the glut of talent we have it may be hard to keep the bench that short.
