We won 2 NCAA games that season. This season we have 1 senior, 3 juniors, 1 sophomore and 5 Freshman(1 who's a redshirt and practiced half a season with the team and the other who's 21 and played in Europe). Cupboard might be bare to you, but it ain't near as bare as our 2nd most successful season in the past 32.

I just want to add some extra information here. The cupboard wasn't left bare in 2014-15. Things occurred in that year that forced the second half of the year to have the players you listed.
We also had Robinson and Scott, but then incidents occurred, so they were done after 9 games.
We had a graduate transfer, who we hoped had recovered from concussion symptoms, but after 8 games, and another concussion, he was done.
We also had a player from a community college come in, have a knee surgery, was going to be great for us, was always going to be playing in the "next" game, and then, disappeared without a trace.
So, yes, that 14-15 team did well, but there were 4 more players that were originally planned on having in that year, and circumstances happened that they didn't finish the year.
