Nope, the situation was much worse. If you had lined up the two teams, one with 5 starters, 1 freshman and one walk-on(none of the 7 taller than 6'6), and then line up this team with 5 starters and 5 Freshman ((4 players 6'9 or taller) and predicted which one would do better, EVERYONE would've chosen this one because they had a better situation.
Oh yeah, and XW played great last season, Josh was a known when he was healthy which he was coming into this season, Crosby improved toward the end of last season and no matter how you rate Baby D last season, what he's done so far speaks for itself. That makes only one(two if you count Crosby so I will) starting positions with a big question mark compared to 3 that season.
