Hildreth needs to sure up his jump shot, which I have complete faith he will, and he will be a valuable piece as a Freshman, IMO.

FWIW, between 2016 and 2017, WF jumped from #118 (2016 Deacs went 11-20 (2-16)) to #36 (2017 Deacs went 19-14(9-9)) and from a complete college hoop non-factor to the good side of the bubble. Granted that 2017 team had an NBA lottery pick and doesn't appear that there is anyone on next year's roster with that level of talent, but we do have a significant upgrade on the sidelines.
Still need to see what seniors/NBA draft eligible players return to other programs and how the transfers shake out across the country, but WF will be massively improved next year for all the talent additions/subtractions mentioned on this thread as well as a full year with the current staff without COVID interruptions and limitations. Right now, seems like bubble talk is little optimistic, but not a complete impossibility.
Nope. That's how KP calculates his participation percentages. Total number of minutes played by the player divided by total number of team minutes. It's not a novel concept as participation has to take into account both the player's minutes in games when he played and the games that he missed.

I would be surprised if Williamson and Mucius didn’t start.
I guess my hot take is that Mucius will get stronger under Forbes this offseason and be a problem at the 3 next season. I always thought he could be a really good ACC 3 if he ever put on some mass. This summer is the time to do it.
I hope Monsanto is better next year but I think it will take him some time to have shot-creating ability in the ACC.

It's pretty crazy to think about how JC singlehandedly kept Manning at WF for multiple more years. Without JC transforming into an NBA lottery talent, that 2017 team would have been horrendous (lost Devin Thomas and CMM, only significant additions were Keyshawn Woods and freshman Brandon Childress). If John had not taken that massive jump I bet that WF finishes worse in 2017 than we did in 2016, but there was simply no way to lose too many games with how good John was that year.
Minnesota transfer target 7 foot center Liam Robbins selects Vandy.... Stackhouse has been able to bring the talent. Time for some wins.

Wow. Maybe we had way more of a shot with him than I thought.
