One thing that seems to have been forgotten (or at least shelved for the time being) is how well Archie's offense worked before we had "creators" at PG and SF. They used motion, screens, and crisp passing to get players open for good shots.

I see next year as a "Back To The Future" kind of year, where Archie can reinstall the offense that served us so well in the first 2 years of this 4-year NCAA run. Mikesell, Miller, & Cunningham setting screens that will allow Crosby, Davis, and Williams to get open to receive a well-timed pass and take an open shot. Or, Williams, Davis, & Crosby setting screens so that Mikesell or Miller can get those shots. Or, instead of taking the shot, they feed Cunningham in the post for an 8-foot turnaround J. Lots more options than just a "drive & dish".

There'll be growing pains, certainly. But even if next year ends in the NIT or the CBI, it's still going to be fun watching next year's squad learn & grow. Just so they're peaking in March.
