Carver is primarily a forward, as well most big guys in our conference as I mentioned. Which teams have multiple legitimate 6-10 and above players?

You are completely missing the point. Which teams can survive their starting "center" missing the entire season? Your argument would apply to 99% of the teams in the nation.

Without Robinson, we would be somewhere between .500 and a handful of games above. Now, what if we lose Caver (season done) or Stith (season done).

Absolutely true. Last year was the first full season we had Brandon without injuries. The first two we were pretty bad without him. I remember going to UR in first game back and we looked awful and he did too in limited action. He was able to pull it together and the team was as well and ended up strong down the stretch, and then Caver turned an ankle just before the CUSA tournament. Injuries are a part of the game but even more so for us mid majors.
