I will not dismiss Dambrot and Kron. They will return Kretzer and MacAdams along with Ibitayo, who stepped up in postseason. They have Evans and Betancourt at least with experience and Johnson and Forsythe down low. Cheatham is experienced a little as well. Abreu will screw up the team if he returns and Tree may end up at a bigger program by way of transfer if he can graduate like a lot of guys do now.

As for us, we technically return four starters in Stevie, Bean, Mo and Tony now. Then we have Treg off the bench and I think D.J. really will be something special. He is physically already there at 6-5, 200. Everything points to Rodell being tough and Tariq athletic as heck.

I would be more worried about Kan't with Brewer, Thomas, Simmons, Jackson, Ortiz, Spicer and a new transfer back. But they do have Sendy!
