[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1430408, member: 7292"] We do not have talent and depth in the frontcourt to compete with better teams. Our guards are good but all this talk about taking apart other teams with penetration and just kicking out for easy outside shots is nonsense. We have a very good backcourt but not the superiority that some fans had envisioned. ISU and Prohm had done their homework, they really came out playing Frazier very tight, taking away our primary threat. Positionless basketball without the skills and players in the frontcourt is just hallucination. We will get better as the season progresses, no doubt, but we simply do not have the horses to compete beyond a certain point. Without a major turnaround in recruiting soon, we will unfortunately waste a golden opportunity to build on a really good backcourt. JMO. [/QUOTE]
