I'm not including Ray and Landrum because I'm not counting on significant minutes from them next year. If we add a grad transfer guard to that lineup, that team will have some serious skill. Assuming Douglas and Chargois improve a little and Akoy is healthy all year.
If you are amazing, are you also awesome?

Thank you for that SMUer. A lot of people on here in denial.
In other news, McMurray is trying to drag us across the finish line and bless him for it because he's not getting any other help.

We need to switch defense in a couple of spots just to confuse Memphis even if it iteads to mismatches on the post.

Probably, but did you mean to quote a different comment? PonyFan32 used the word "amazing", but only when talking about about the full team (only 2/7 of whom are this year's freshmen) and specifically excluded Landrum.

Bad turnover by Jimmy and then a charging foul by Jimmy in a critical situation with just over two minutes left might have sealed it for Memphis
