[QUOTE="SescIllini, post: 1435502, member: 603681"] The key is keeping the team together through next season. I see a lot of potential in all the underclassmen. Giorgi and Samba have very quick feet for their size. Add experience, strength, tools and we are much better next year. Ayo is going to be a starter and +12ppg scorer for us, that is historically elite for our program. Griffin has plenty intangibles and great size for a college combo guard. See him being a great shooter and solid on defense/rebounding. Tevian is raw, but has a good stroke and best athlete on team. He is closer to Samba in BBIQ and well behind Ayo/Griffin. Give him time to grow. Trent, Damonte, Feliz will be better next season. See Trent getting physically stronger, and driving more to rim. Damonte still not recovered from knee IMHO, early in final year if high school seemed more explosive. See Damonte being a bigger offensive threat next year. This is year 1 for this group. Not much to build from last year. Saw less mechanical effort and more confident plays vs UNLV. Yes lesser competition, but shows that knowledge of the system is growing. [/QUOTE]
