Lets focus on November 2023 and December 2023 Games rather than going back 15 years.  (But thank you for the information).

One thought on the high minutes is that we were not as talented top to bottom over those years as before.  Hence, best players played more minutes as we needed to win, rather than having our 2nd unit close out blowouts in November and December.

Losing an All ACC Center hurts.   I'd like to think our incoming Soph/Junior class has something to prove.

One issue is that now we have no-one on the roster that has been to the NCAA's.   We have a new coach.  My reasoning is that  I'd like to give this team Nov/Dec to shape up and show us what they are capable of in early season.   All of the returning players have had breakout games more than once during the season.  We have seen that they can contribute when brining their "A GAME".  If these players  become more consistent in their contribution, we can only improve.  The Center Position troubles me as we lack game experience there.    Otherwise this will be a guard centric team with I hope significant increase in production from the forwards.    That has been SU's mantra for years. Guards and Small Forwards drive the boat.

Go CUSE.
