Some offseason thoughts,
 
1) I'd love to see us play like L'ville and Fla. Pressure for turnovers, and fall back into the zone. It speeds up tempo and leaves the opponent less time to operate against the zone. It would also create easier baskets. The downside is giving up some easier baskets, but it's a good trade-off for a tempo change.
2)Rak has the same mindset as Jeremy McNeil. Jeremy ALWAYS wanted to block the shot and was in constant foul trouble. They both allow the entry pass too  easily and then dare the opponent to shoot the ball. Rak would be better served to play better positional denial defense and be more selective in his shotblocking.
3) Trevor is a very hard worker and I expect a better all around game next year. His game was so one dimensional it became a head scratcher for me. 63/FT's, 38/assists and 40% FG%. Ouch. He played like Marty Headd, a long range specialist who as a sophomore had 67/FT's, 47/assists but shot 53% from the field. I'm sure Marty didn't play as many minutes as Trevor but the point is that Trevor is more athletic and has to improve these areas. A lot. Trevor should not be just  a long range sniper.
4) We really need a healthy DC next year.
5) Would like to see G work on a pull-up jumper from 10'.
 
I'm rooting for someone new to win it all this year.
