Given the above is correct; I am still holding out hope for a signing of one or two BIGS up to the end of June. Dayton still has two open scholarships. But, once June 30 rolls around then that is it. If we have no signings then Cunningham is our center. The roster is set. We will be playing “small ball”.

To be fair - it's unlikely that there is a big out there, with eligibility this year, who can contribute for us right away. Maybe there is a grad transfer I'm missing.
And I think we need to define "small ball". We had a pretty darn good season without a guy over 6'6" (that was small ball). We will have 4 such players this year. Most of them lack girth, but 6'8" isn't "small".
I'm hoping to see a lot of up tempo defense leading to up tempo offense. We are setup to run. Yes, we will struggle against a team that can slow us down and has a true post presence, but we have a chance to dictate pace most nights.
