I love this pickup and I am a big fan of what Coach Grant has been able to do for our roster in a year and a half. Next year, we will have a bunch of size and skill, for sure. 6’11” Jordy, 6’10” Sissoko, 6’9” Obi... it’s looking very good for the 2019-20 season.

But don’t discount how good the 2013-14 Elite Eight squad was. We had a lot of size and skill on that team too. Scott & Robinson were 6’9” and skilled, I think Kavanaugh was 6’9” as well and Alex G didn’t play much but was also in that range. Devin Oliver was 6’7” I think, Pierre 6’5”ish, Vee Sanford and Jordan Sibert were really good, Khari Price was solid, and we had three freshmen on that team who ended up being the winningest class ever at Dayton. So I’m excited about the talent level on next year’s team, but that squad had 6 fringe NBA guys on it, and Scott, Robinson, and Vee are all still playing professionally.

Anyway, we will see with our current roster, and I’m extremely optimistic about the future for our program, but man, don’t forget how good that 13-14 team really was.
