You have to lose one in regular season to take the pressure off.

Maybe long term but as freshmen, no.

Unfortunately, I don't think we are adding Watford.

Regardless the front court is going to be formidable.

Agree. We are loaded with or without Watford, RJ, or whomever.

We are LOADED as things stand now. Great frontcourt who can post up but also hit outside shots. They are surrounded by outside firepower in Tyler, Lester and Boogie.

If we add Trendon (apparently not likely) or RJ (still very much in the mix), we've entered into absolutely ridiculous territory.

It's at least the Top 3, if not #1, IMHO.

I don't know if we do or who does have the number one back court. Only time will tell. Who does rank number one in your expert opinion?

Don't.

We have three freshmen(one who is injured or recovering) and a senior who isn't a defensive threat.

I'd guess half the teams in the power five.

I don't think our frontcourt can be this mediocre with 2 top 10 NBA picks. Just don't. We're thin. I hope Maurice doesn't need to contribute or have many minutes. Also hope Dandridge is healthy. I understand why you're not quick to say it's THE #1 Frontcourt. But worse than half the P5 frontcourts? ReallY?

Okay, Not half.

The point really is that schools have 4th year skilled bigs, some teams probably 6 deep.

I understand that James and Precious are going to be good but I am uncertain as to how much help Maurice, a hurt Dandridge, and unknown how good Thomas is.

Two of those guys have NCAA div 1 experience and one of them didn't play last year.

I'm not knocking our guys but I am also not going to expect them to push EVERYONE around.

They will hold their own. 2 5*, 2 4* and a 3* senior.
