You're right- That was a bit harsh. Terribly disppointing from being called a national top recruit. His defense is good but he can't shoot or take care of the ball. If he was living up to the rep though, we would have a very good team despite him being the only one of our players who would have been offered at a Top 25 school with the possible exception of Simpson. Yet we expect to beat top 25 schools? Dement has the same burdens to bear as Bennett yet because of some limited success, we expect more from him. I think we may have a better team than we should expect with no history, mediocre to poor facilities, limited recruiting budgets etc.
