I've been impressed how Lick' can keep them close in games. They don't really have a center / inside game and only one pure ball handler. If they get some recruits, theycan be a very good team.

That's a big if. They don't have much help coming next year, and Brennan Cougill from '09 is the only good recruit he has recruited. Gatens is a good recruit, but he was recruited by Alford. He doesn't see like he will be a great player at the collegiate level though.

Lick's teams aren't known for their inside game. However, he does have interest for the 2009 class from some pretty decent sized players.

Gatens, Tucker, and the JUCO player coming in from the 2008 class will be very solid shooters.

Add in Jarryd Cole, and you've got a decent inside game. Not great, but decent.
