Great news if Luis/Taylor/Zuby/Dunlap/Wilcher are all back (even though I’m a Luis detractor). Continuity is important. All those guys will have eligibility as well after next year. Add in the three freshman coming in, that makes eight, assuming Ayo/Davis/Traore are gone. We need to go big-game hunting with those last five ships.

Dingle's overall production this year is replaceable. Jenkins was the difference for us on the court this season. His minutes and production will be difficult to replace. Wilcher showed nothing to think he can play meaningful minutes or give meaningful production next season, based on what we've seen this season.

Jenkins and Dingle will be very easily replaced. They don’t defend well at all and they don’t generate any pressure or easy points. They also don’t draw any contact like our eligible returnees.

This whole thing looks vastly different with two guards who can pressure and create easy points…to a degree most fans can’t even comprehend until they see it.

We can’t look at it through the lens of replacing production with how dramatically different it will look just having 10 guys who are physically capable of pressing well and playing open.

It's scary too because them being able to keep a guy like Samson Johnson happy for three years on the bench is going to reap major, major benefits next year.

How about Diarra? He’d have a shot at 1st team all conference if he played at Butler, Xavier, or St. John’s.

He’s literally twice as good as he was last year behind our own Nahiem Alleyne. How in the world did they get that kid to stick around?!

I would take Jenkins in a heartbeat if he had another year of eligibility. IMO you’re too hard on him. His play is the reason for our win streak.

Is this sourced?

I honestly like it. We need team-first+second+third guys to occupy the bench who has no ego and no expectation to play. Great for culture.

Agree but would like him to stop bombing 3s within seconds of coming into the game 🤪
