Same expectations? Or are we supposed to be improved? Any chance for 20 wins?

Since our home games will be in Greenville, and no savior coming in, I would expect about the same or worse.

We do have upgrades at PG in

Holmes and Hudson. We also have are three most talented players coming back in Blossomgame, Grantham and Nnoko. If we can get a good shooting guard transfer or recruit coming in we could win 20 easily. The Playing Greenville issue won't be too bad. We will have good fan support there.

hudson on't be an upgrade next year at pg...

I watched his entire game last night. He has way more upside than Hall, but won't be better next year. He is a liability with ball and isn't a true pg yet. I am really hopes Holmes is the real deal.

I would not want to place my team in the hands of Nnoko to lead them to big wins in the ACC! Ain't gonna happen!!! If we don't get some big time help, it will be another year as this one was. And that help will NOT come from out recruiting Elon and Lander for star players. We are currently doing that. This is the ACC and small time players do not win and no coach is good enough to consistently win without big time shooters. A basketball fact.

Hudson is a 4*. Ole Miss and Oklahoma St wanted him among others. He is considered a top 10 PG recruit for this class. He will play some and get better. At least like Stitt's first year. He struggled early in game last night but finished with 19 pts.

He is a good athlete....

He isn't a program changer. When I saw him last night I realized that CBB won't be back after his contract. I think he will be solid, bud we aren't getting some amazing hidden gem. He is just a solid player at one point. he has a better chance of winning Lotto than ever playing in the NBA. He will be solid...a slightly better Hall, and that's not the first year.

Rivals has him at #126 overall
Scout has him at #91 overall and the #13 PG
247 has him at #160 overall and the #29 PG
ESPN has him outside of the top 100 overall and the #24 PG

Depending on who talk to...

Some more local recruiting experts think Hudson is very underrated. Hoopseen likes him a lot. The fact that he will be first team All-GA is impressive. Georgia is one of the top states for bkball talent in country. I know Eric Bossi for Rivals likes him a lot and is about to give him ranking bost. You can't go by one game where he had 19 pts.

Yea I don't think the Greenville this will be an issue really...and on the bright side we won't have a pathetic looking student section empty either so more fans may be closer

Just run free charter buses out to G'ville on Game Days ....
Mar 8, 2015, 11:30 PM
[ in reply to Re: So next year's basketball team... ] |

For students ... make it fun ... have the buses leave say 3 hours after game over ... give the little tykes a chance to use their fake ID's in Greenville .... chance to get off Campus ... G'ville IS happ'in .... Week Day games WILL be problematic, require further analysis ..... the whole late/studying thing ....

I expect better. Return our best player

for the first time since Brownell has been here in Blossomgame. I expect Grantham to take a big step forward next year. Holmes will be a big upgrade offensively at PG. He can shoot it, and goodness knows we need that. SG is a question mark. I like what I think Ajukwa can bring there with his length. Devoe has some ability, will he put in the work he needs? Roper is Roper, streaky. Nnoko and Djitte are solid if unspectacular in the post and Robertin brings excellent athleticism. He'll have time to develop as will Hudson. Josh Smith isn't a bad bench player. Rooks must get healthy or he'll never play, just not athletic enough right now.
