I can't wait to see how good these freshmen can be when they're playing for a real coach who can motivate them, develop their talents, and put them in the best positions to win games.
Put it behind you, guys. But I'm going to start a thread just to remind everyone.
Yeah that fourth foul call on Devin was hilariously bad. It was off the ball and not anywhere near where the play was, and I'm not even sure that there was anymore than those two guys standing next to each other. I don't even remember the Clemson guy trying to go anywhere, nor do I remember Devin holding him or really even touching him.
The truth of the matter is that for the most part, they have decent skill attributes, but it is a class of role players I am afraid.
CMM/Devin have the potential to get above that. We will see.
One or two need to break out next year for us to be NIT good though, and it needs to be three to make the NCAAs eventually. Hopefully Shelton can be the third, but that's a lot of pressure, and we're also two full seasons away from the mid-point of his freshman year.
Bz seemed to hail them as saviors all year last year, but I think it was "savior after 4 years of my culture and coaching" more than instant savior success. This is year one of the Bz 4 year plan endorsed by Wellman. I don't see Bz going any time soon, especially with a bona fide savior coming in 2 years.Part of the problem is that no one who knows what they're talking about did hail any of these freshmen as a program savior, yet everyone's opinions get lumped together so that it can be difficult to discern who said what.
