Counting on Miksell.... Hope you are right but he wasn't a star before. Helpless on d before, and we sure need defensive help.
Will our two freshmen guards improve. Probably, but doubt their ability to get us back to respectability next year. Today was telling, against a not very strong opponent. Neither man got to the line. They settled for jumpshots because they can't penetrate. Maybe Cohill can but he's a freshmen.
Unless Topin is a real player, and/orAG can land some solid grad transfers. We will be hanging with Duquesne and Fordham in the pit of misery again.

Every player on this team gets stronger. These freshmen ran out of gas in my opinion. But the skills are there. The A10 is a guard league, usually full of strong ones.
As far as Mikesell, according to Bucky he's looking very good in practice late this year when finally cleared to play head to head. Heard good rumblings about Toppin as well.
I didn't say we were Elite Eight next year but i do think this team dances. Only time will tell but I expect at least one more notable recruit/transfer this spring, possibly 2. Yes i wear rose colored glasses. I think team chemistry is maybe the most important factor going into next year.
