A couple of big if's. If everyone is healthy, If everyone comes back, this could be a 20 win team again. I still believe in coach Tinkle and am willing to give him some more time. If (if again) this team can gel together they could really be a problem for a lot of teams. Maybe I'm being overly optimistic but whatever, I really believe this will be the comeback story of the NCAA. From basically no where, to their first tourney in 28 years, to awful, and maybe back to the tourney. I'm excited for next year.
Ok taking my glasses now.

The beavs have the same problem as last year. There is no point guard/ball handler

I think if healthy this team can get back to the NCAA tourney. As alwaysorange points out, they could use another PG, but I think you'll see people taking a step forward with the experience they gained last year. And I think people are underestimating what a healthy Tres will bring. He can help initiate the offense and with him and E. Thompson, it gives us more scoring, which will also help the PG situation by opening things up. |

I was very optimistic when Tinkle signed and GPII kept his commitment. When polled on our victories in the first season I recall being an extreme outlier on wins, in a positive direction. The team exceeded my expectations. Now that I have some history observing Tinkle's leadership capacity without a floor general, it is clear he needs a floor general. The coach's kids, which is curious to me, are not providing this leadership. If we do not have floor general this season it will be tortuous and follow the same pattern as last year. Our two NBA prospects will likely work on their weaknesses, further aiding the team's demise.
Sign a proven point guard and I'm with you. Without, put me on the other side of the spectrum.
