[QUOTE="Deleted member 643761, post: 1424062"] Hate to put too much stock into a first game against IW. That said, it's a nice early indication that Feliz is going to be good. If this holds, it also takes a little of the early pressure off of Ayo which hopefully helps his development. I've said this before, but if in fact our guards are going to be upper tier in the B1G, let's say top four group, then the success of this season is going to largely come down to Underwood's coaching. I'm not saying he should be able to coach them to a title, but he needs to figure out how to create offense when every team is going to be cheating on our guards because of the lack of big man presence. And he'll need to figure out the defense when we're undersized. in the ideal scenario we're not as undersized as we're worried about because teams have to align their 5 with ours, not vice versa.
