If the kids learn to play team D, ie, help and recover, then they will be fine. If you watched Loyola play, they often had a team of no one over 6’6” on the floor. They played exceptional team D and it was hard to penetrate the lane.
While I agree that I don't think it is a necessity to have a true post offensive player, I disagree about your Villanova example. Although their bigs play small offensively they could both guard big defensively. I've said it before that a big that plays small offensively but like a big defensively is the most coveted player in college basketball.
