We're going need to to make up 18.8 points from Mintz,  9.5 from Brown, 5 points from Taylor and 9.6 from Copeland.  That's about 43 ppg we need to make up to average the same points.

I think Starling and Bell will take up some of that slack, maybe increasing from 25 combined to 30 between then, but other than that we're expecting a ton from transfers and freshman.

I think Freeman will average 12-15, Lampkin 12-15, but where else does the scoring come from?  Do we expect the 6-11 rotation slots to all average 4 to get us to 80 ppg?  Or will Red settle into a 9 man rotation with a couple guys only getting in the game rarely?

I think we'll need to score more to have a similar record because we're going to give up more points next year.  Copeland, Brown and Mintz were great at forcing turnovers and turning it into offense.  Next season we're going to need to force misses and rebound because steals and blocks are going to go from a strength to a weakness season over season.

I personally think we'll be much more spread out in scoring than last year, but who knows how the rotation shakes out?
