Still basketball this year, and I'll be rooting hard.
Looking to next year, there are promising recruits in DGL, Hansberry, Moretti.
I think it's safe to say BU can play the portal, even if the results haven't panned out exactly as we'd have liked this year, and there will be solid additions.
Think it'd be completely irrational to not welcome back Hawkins and TSJ with open arms, if they want to come earn $ome NIL.
Hoping Juniors Goode, Dain, RJ are back for the ride.
We live in the portal era, though, and it's likely there will be a surprise transfer or two from Illinois as well.
But what I most want to see out of next year's team is to have one or more of the sophomores: Epps, Rodgers, Harris, who will all be veterans next year, to take on a leadership role. Not sure who is capable of stepping into this role, and maybe Goode or others can fit this mold too. But someone to lead like DMFW, Trent, or Ayo. Give them a captain's C and carte blanche to get-in-their-teammate's-grill and demand they get their heads outta their arse for taking off plays kinda leader. Demonstrate this is an every day guy program, and be vocal to those who feel otherwise. I'd say that's what this year's team is missing, almost as much as depth at PG, or stellar outside shooters.
