I could see us going 2-2, I dont think we go 1-3, we have played like it alot lately but I have more faith in our coaches/players than that.

@Woodrow Exactly. I’m saying he was over-rated to begin with.

@truehawk93 In all fairness he’s been consistent - started this thread Nov. 16. Not that I agree, just sayin’ it’s not a knee jerk reaction.

@KUSTEVE Sherron/RR/Sasha/DBlock. They won rings.

He is good at identifying talent and players that fit his system. Kids willing to red shirt and develop etc…

@justanotherfan Maybe Doke will be able to develop into a more versatile defender this off-season if he returns. Hudy was starting the scratch the surface with his body this year. His bad matchup with Spellman he wasn’t 100% so its tough to get a full read how different he could have defended him if he wasn’t limited. I don’t think it would have been a big difference but we don’t know. At least its a glaring weakness that can be addressed either here with our staff or wherever he ends up.

Devon Dotson and Marcus Garret are a top tier duel pg option and Charlie and KJ are two vets that are great back ups. I think the only question is whether Legerald leaves. If he does I suspect Romeo Langford will commit and if not then we have our senior leader talking mad shit on the court. Wouldn’t mind having LG back for another year.

For those wondering KJ Lawson is a redshirt Soph next season. Received a medical waiver for a heel injury suffered in his freshman year. “A heel injury limited K.J. Lawson to 10 games in the 2015-16 season, forced to watch his brother Dedric win the American Athletic Conference’s rookie of the year award from the sidelines. K.J. was, however, granted a medical redshirt and an extra season of eligibility, and last season, he captured his own AAC rookie of the year honor.”

@BShark 5 Duke players and 3 KU players. I understand many analyst that vote in these polls will not include freshmen since nobody knows how well (or poorly) they will play in college.
