I'm not down on our recruits. I have huge reservations about going to battle next fall/winter with all of nine scholarship athletes.
Also, we did not plug the hole in the middle. We are counting on Marsden, Gray and Hubalek. So, we are actually going into battle in the middle with less than what we had last year. Johnson and Johnson are not posts, they are forwards. I was hoping Stiggers would sign to give a true post presence and that Smith would sign to give us depth in the backcourt.

I wouldn't say less than last year. You couldn't get much less than what Taggart gave and the other guys will have an offseason of real coaching. We'll be better in the post than a year ago.

I think we have serious problems in the post. Ross is still a year or two away from being an iside pressence (despite being a good player) and Jiri is also not an inside pressence and in my opinion is more than a summer of coaching away from being one. Jessan is more of a 3 than a 4 much less a 5. And as of now we are bringing in no one over 6'7". I would say that we have serious issues in the middle. Can the guys returning be better? Yes. Will that be enough? I kind of doubt it.
I think we are going to have depth/experience problems at 4 out of 5 positions. The only good position is SF with Rahshon, Cory Johnson, Wesley Johnson. But again the depth there has no experience.
