So if the roster fills out the way I just alluded to… What’re realistic expectations next year?
On one hand…
You’ll have 7 guys who have averaged 9.5+ ppg in a season at the D1 level.
Plenty of experience & multiple guys who have been or have proven to be “the guy”
On the other hand…
Not too much PG or C depth…
Bring back half of a roster that was just a above average team last year…
Last year I had a lot of expectations & was disappointed with how the season turned out. Not because it was a “bad” year, but there was a lot left on the table of what that team could’ve been…
I think the way this roster is constructed we have guys who are more willing to play a role & win rather than either proving they belong individually or playing for draft status…
If they buy in: Top 3 Big Ten Finish, top 5 seed in the tourney…
If it’s up & down again… top half finish, top 8 seed again is probably the floor…
This group should win 21-25 games, and win 11-14 big ten games and I’ll be pretty happy
