Yep. But if you guess correctly, I'll send you a box of leftover girl scout cookies. They will likely be the lemon ones.

I’ll make a prediction. We are going to be really good next year.

Edit: not being sarcastic. I really believe that, top 25 good.

That assumes Curry, Ezikpe and Trice agree to come back and not go elsewhere.

I wont go that far. But if curry and ezikpe come back, we should compete for cusa title

Yep. I am assuming. I am very hopeful.

If Loyola can make 25, any decent CUSA team can.

we made the Top 25 once... but Loyola did what only two CAA teams could do... and make the Final Four.

I was thinking during today's game... how good it would be to have Frank the Tank on this team.

Saw Frank a few times this past fall while playing pick up baseball T the Park . He is doing some individual training/coaching for young middle/high school kids.

My friend, I’ve noticed over the years you seem to be correct just about every time when you predict something about our roster. I’m sorry to see the guys name in the middle listed. I want all three back for sure. Curry can make some good money playing overseas, so him going would be the least surprising to me. Ezikpe is just coming into his own.

I hope we get our former best player back. With Wade next year, if he's is close to where he was, it could be a huge lift to the team.

Interesting to see how transfers work this off season. I mean most school will be keeping players, then add freshmen coming doesn't leave much room at the inn.

The man knows things. In this case it concerns me.

Why would Kalu leave early? Is he on pace to graduate early?

I think the idea is that if he wanted to play for a P5 program, his skill has taken him there.

Similar to Bones at VCU.

With the upcoming (pending, but most-likely) approval for a one-time transfer waiver, which will allow student-athletes to play right away, Kalu could potentially transfer regardless of his graduation status.

If Curry and Trice (and maybe X) return, Wade comes back at full strength and Kalu stays, (God forbid he leaves. Hadn't even considered that. He's my favorite player), I think we will be pretty good too. But, I thought that this year as well. And if every other team returns the same pieces, like we hope to, I don't really see why we would finish much better than we did this year. The addition of Wade would bring us back to full strength, and maybe he is the missing piece between finishing fourth and finishing first.

Bassey will not be returning next year.

Won't Stansbury pay for someone new who is just as good as Bassey?

most likely. Currently, it's their incoming frosh PG...no big currently, so who know who he'll conjure up.
