I’m hoping Maverick Rowan picks up where Kyle left off, albeit with better defense. If that happens, then the question marks for me are 1) who spells Cat when he tires, 2) scoring/rebounding from our bigs, 3) Henderson/Turner, 4) who takes big shots? I do think the Martin twins will show us something this year and perhaps one of them has the moxy to serve as a ballhandler….
I think the keys to this year’s team is whether Anya can stay out of foul trouble enough to log significant (20+) minutes, how quickly Freeman recovers from injury and whether Kirk can actually mix it up inside. We’re a little thin down low.
This team will be dancing for sure. Good guard play and a defensive presence in the middle wins in college basketball, and we have both. It’d just be nice to see us take that next stop to a consistent Top 25 team all year.
I think Notre Dame won’t be anywhere near the same team without Jerian Grant, and Miami and FSU and 5 and 6 is really optimistic as well.
Move Louisville and State up a couple of spots and you’re probably closer to what the standings will look like in March.
The one thing to remember is that FSU and Miami usually have some of the easiest conference schedules in the ACC. Miami’s permanent partners are Apex and Garner HS. They have an advantage that my prove huge in a tightly bunched group of 4-5 teams.
