Only a short write-up on ESPN but thought people might be interested to read about or conference.

I do not think we are supposed to be talking about and looking forward to basketball until after Friday night.

Who was suppose to score for this team last year? Did anyone think Killen was going to do what he did? Young teams grow up fast. Look for Dia to become an more mature option. Who knows what McCoy can do?

That is my point - we had no true scorer last year, and it is very likely we will not have one this year. McCoy and/or Williams very well could be legit college scorers, but they were signed as PG, and we've seen what it is like when your best offensive threat is your PG.

Bamba and Dia both showed they could be 15ppg scorers this season, but at minimum will both be double digit guys

Malone will be at least double digit scorer

Williams averaged 19ppg last year at the JUCO level

Mccoy is a wildcard as of now

Faye and Nayakundi could have potential as scorers, although we will have to see

I am pretty excited about this upcoming season and think we will see a great deal of improvement. I don't think that Doherty's goal of "flipping" last season's 10-20 mark is completely unattainable, although I certainly won't predict that level of success or expect it.
