I like SDSU as a program, always good on defense, I liked the Fisher teams a lot. They got shafted as much as anyone with the lost tournament last year -- that was their best team, excellent on both ends and imo a legit contender.

Watched them this year in the two games vs Boise and I'm not sure what to make of them. Mitchell is a very cool and unorthodox player. He's honestly rather fat but he can really move and is very skilled. I imagine it will be him getting fed at the high post and he can cause problems for the zone there. Schakel can stretch the floor but in general their guards are not great.

Boise is a team with some bucket getters but they lack any reliable penetration at the guard spot (sound familiar?). Their star Alston went off in the first game and they lost in OT, but boise still kept it close with a bad game from alston in game 2.

I came away with a very lukewarm impression of SDSU this year. They've padded their record by beating up on the bad Mountain West and are nowhere near the team they were last year but they are certainly not a pushover.
