the forwards have literally zero experience in the zone. swider has "never played this role before"...benny looks totally lost. the forwards are what makes the zone tick, imo. yes in terms of age and years of ncaabb it should be enough but i can see why its not.
i mean...im assuming they didnt want kadary and qg to leave...maybe im wrong on that. i guess they also wouldve liked it if braswell stayed too. as far as ag and woody...i think it wouldve been nice if woody stayed but they probably didnt beg him to. if they wanted all of them to leave i guess you are right, kinda.
assuming they didnt want some or all of those transfers to leave, then the incoming players are contingency players...because the schedule was made when qg kadary woody and braswell were still on the team...and expected to still be on the team!!!!
it wasnt early in the process in terms of this year's schedule.
