Summary: This will be a typical Syracuse team in terms of size and talent but we are depending on untried players in the three key production positons of point guard and the two forwards. Last year we had five freshman. One, (Obokoh) redshirted. One, (Ennis) became and NBA lottery pick. The others, (My Three Sons) weren’t “ready’. That’s normal. Now we will start two freshmen and rely on two of the “sons” and Gbinije to man the other positon. It’s asking a lot for everyone to come through for us and I having a feeling that this year is going to be a very bumpy ride. We lack depth, especially at center and point guard. This will not be one of those #1 teams. Perhaps it could be a team that jells at the right time at the end of the season, as in 2013.

[I]Comments: We never got to see if this team could put something together at the end of the season. I think having to play so many guys for 40 minutes in so many games would probably have prevented that anyway. The team just seemed out of gas at the end. We could play well for stretches but not for 40 minutes. As to the untried players, I’d give Chris McCullough an incomplete. Tyler Roberson did pretty well but with plenty of room for improvement. Kaleb Joseph was overmatched as a freshman. Rakeem Christmas was amazing but couldn’t carry the team by himself. Trevor Cooney was a poor man’s GMAC. It wasn’t enough.[/I]
