Who knows what will happen, but this team should be better next season.

THirt's view isn't Red and Blue glasses but offers up a pretty realistic assessment of player to player comparison going into next year. Other than Kostas' upside, all of the other players weren't giving this team or program anything that isn't replaceable by an incoming freshman. Pierce and X...what did they do that can't be replaced? What was Crosby going to give you next season when he is bumped to the end of the bench even further due to current Sophomores? While MS was giving the effort, are his numbers not replaceable by an incoming first year?

The biggest takeaway is the fact that another year of offseason development may have contributed to a little improvement, but the ceiling was pretty obvious with every player that left sans Kostas.

It is apparent that CAG wants to run his program a certain way. That way benefited players like Cunningham, Trey, and Crutcher. Would you rather have 3 or 4 Crutcher like players roll in with a pretty hefty upside, or dance around guys that in year one looked pretty limited?

This is a clean slate move. From a fans perspective, and with all of the criticism of CAG, this is what the critics should want. This is CAG's team now with his players here and his players coming in. The only holdovers are guys that are "pluses" in the "plus - minus" game of personnel.

There is no better way to evaluate CAG and the direction of the program than for him to get his guys in here and see where this goes. Having the dead weight still here only delays the ability to fairly evaluate where this ship is going.
