I expect big things from him this year and even bigger things out of the Flyers. They did not have the experience or firepower last year to compete for an A-10 title. This year will be a different story.

And there aren't any Justin Tillman's in the A10 this year. VCU loses almost 50% of their rebounding and scoring to transfer or graduation. Every A10 team has it's strengths and weaknesses, and they are not all the same. I think it's going to be tough for any club to go 15-3 this coming season in the A10. The league could be a real scrum.
The thing the Flyers have to do is get better as the year progresses and finish well in our Championship Tournament. We have pooped out in too many season finishes. Our depth should help us this year.
