Nobody outside of Dayton realizes what a stud Obi Toppin is (6'8? Hope opponents believe that!) - Crutcher at point guard has a year under his belt as a starter and solid performer - same goes for Jordan Davis at the two - Landers is a stud who won't back down from anybody - Mikesell is a year older and wiser and hopefully fully mobile and pain free - Cohill comes in as a potential star - and the bench is potentially strong with Matos and Policelli - and that's not mentioning a fifth year all-conference star in Cunningham.
And that's also without mentioning the three big-time potential all-star studs who are practicing with the team every day and who will step in next year.
I'm more excited about this year (and next) than I have been in many years.

Well stated, TireBiter! Compare this group of players to what we had last year - two freshmen guards, a talented player who quit on us, an injured Ryan Mikesell, and the inability to go more than seven deep. We will be immensely better, and like you, I am sky-high on Toppin.
