Title: Our future guard corps
Post by: Doris Burkes Thong on December 19, 2009, 05:20:04 PM
If everyone makes it to campus barring any unexepcted circumstances(I think we're due for some luck in this department, eh?) our backcourt is looking very very good going into next year and beyond. We're going to be very quick/athletic and teams are going to have a heckuva time keeping us outta the paint. We'll be able to pressure teams more effectively with more talent and depth as well. The 3 amigos were so good for us, but they had nothing behind them depth wise. With Blue, Jones, and Smith coming in that's a class very similiar talentwise to the '05 class of James, McNeal, and Matthews. Now add in Buycks, DJO, and Cadougan(keeping fingers crossed he fully recovers) and we got some serious backcourt talent next year. And that alone should keep us very competitive. Now, if Buzz can land a decent big or two and guys like Williams, Mbao, and Otule can develop we could be a top 3 BE team. Despite the loss of Maymon, I still like the direction Buzz has us going. I'm excited for the future to say the least - just not for anymore transfers/season-ending injuries though.
