Nobody is underestimating Scharnowski here, I stated he's a guy who averaged 10 & 6 in the Horizon league. That isn't even an opinion, but merely a citation of his production and at what level.

Arizona's frontcourt is not better if you think it's just Krivas and Holmes. They have Kharchenkov and Godfrey as well. That's 2 players returning from a F4 team and another player coming from a 24-11 tournament team in which he was their best player and leading scorer. That is a wealth of tested depth in comparison to Duke.
Actually, Scharnowski played at Belmont in the Missouri Valley and he was pretty impressive in the games I saw him play against the Salukis. Unless he can really improve on that 43% free throw number, his usage might be fairly limited.

Not sure where I got Horizon from (and thanks for the correction) yet it probably doesn’t change the assessment much, if at all.
