This assumes that Ramsey will be back:

C-Kamil Janton
PF-Jamell Harris
SG-Derek Thompson
SG-JR Sims
PG-Antonio Green

Give these guys starters' minutes, and I think they outperform this year's squad (although I know that isn't saying much).

Sims, Harris, and Janton in particular really look they could devlop into decent starters someday.

Any other suggestions, or should we cancel basketball altogether as well?

Players will leave.

here's my guess at depth chart (also assuming everyone comes back)

c - Balkema, Harris, Janton
pf - Harris, Stewart, Washington
sf - Thompson, Dailey
sg - Green, Thompson, Sims, Dailey
pg - Sims, Lampley, Green, Frazier, Burton

there's no scoring on next year's team. Harris might bump it up to 10pts/game. Balkema/Janton/Stewart will combine for 8-10pts. Thompson/Green 15-20pts/game. Sims/Lampley 15-20pts/game.

also, i have no insider information, but i wouldn't be surprised to see at least one of Burton, Frazier, Balkema (based on mysteriously not playing second half of the season) leave before next season.

yikes.

If Ramsey's back, anybody's guess. Has there been an offseason that hasn't seen a recruit bolt?

Freer
Barnes
Farris
Dumes

Farris was suspended part way through his final season -- cannot recall why. And Barnes didn't do anything at UIC this year, but all four were talented and could have really helped their teams.

When you have half a team of JUCOs and cannot keep your players you're gonna struggle. Ramsey screams at his players non stop.

Get him outta here.

The development of players has not been a strong suit under Ramsey.

I doubt Frazier will be back. Balkema???

2 new recruits Washington and Tensmahel (sp)

Probably hAVE 2 SCOLARSHIPS TO GIVE BARRIGN ANYONE LEAVING.

NEED SOME SCORERS
