By my count we will have 5 guys moving on after this year so barring a transfer there is only one more 'ship to give? With 2 highly productive guards in Harris & Oquendo among those finishing up their college careers, I sure hope Enfield and his staff can land a top flight guard who can come in and contribute right away.

After watching our guys fall @ Butler tonight with BJ Edwards disappearing offensively, I really hope Enfield can find a scoring guard to come in here and make an immediate impact next year and take some pressure off Boopie Miller

We are going to miss Harris and Oquendo next year. Need to find an impact guard to help fill this class.

Did I mention we really need another impact guard for next year's team? That 1-14 shooting from three against Clemson was a reminder of that need. Hopefully Boopie and B.J. come back but they are going to need help in the backcourt

Would O'Neill work as a 2?

O-Neill, Puryear and Davis-Ray were all double figure scorers in H.S. but we don't know if they will do so against ACC competition. Losing Cross, Harris and Oquendo will take a big bite out of our offense so we are going to need scoring from the SF & SG positions next year. I'm hoping for an impact guard/proven scorer from the portal to supplement Boopie and B.J. (hopefully they both return for their SR seasons). In this day and age, roster building/maintenance is a huge challenge year to year.
