Men's Basketball: What are we looking at this year?

[Flowers4Heisman]

I don't even know who's on the roster. That's how bad it's been for me. Do we have a pulse this year?

[TarHeel_Bull]

We have a very young team, with a lot of talent that still is developing and growing together. Don't expect too much record wise this year, especially with our best scorer Holston out the whole year, but in the next couple of years this program will no doubt be a NCAA Tournament team.

[Paisa el Toro]

I'm not sure Holston has been confirmed to be out for the year, Bulls_Fan. Antigua has bettered his recruiting at USF, but we're still in dire need of sharpshooters from beyond the 3pt arc, and we need some more beef in the post. Roddy Peters, the transfer from Maryland, may be a surprise. I'm looking forward to both Morillo and Cousins stepping their game up this season, as they're seniors.

[TarHeel_Bull]

Sorry, he's out for at least most of the year, he tore his acl or mcl last year and was projected to be out the year, hopefully it is healing faster and he can be back soon.

I'm looking at the roster now, and I don't see firepower.

Roddy Peters: at MD, avg. 4.1 points/g and 1.3 rebounds

Chris Perry: Hopefully, he's a force for us. But is he 100%?

Rubin Guerrero: Avg. 5.4 points last season.

Bo Zeigler: Averaged 6.4 points and 4.5 rebounds

Nehemias Morillo: Averaged 10.1 points

Troy Holston: (injured)

Jaleel Counsins: Averaged 2.9 points and 2.6 rebounds

The new guys:

Gonzaga transfer, Angel Nunez, Averaged 2.7 points and 1.9 rebounds as a junior. ESPN four-star, Luis Santos, averaged 11.1 points and 5.6 rebounds.

ESPN four-star, Tulio Da Siva, averaged 7.5 points, 12.5 rebounds, Geno Thorpe, Penn State transfer, must sit out a year (right?).

[TarHeel_Bull]

Yes, Thorpe has to sit out a year before he can play. If you look at the stats that cousins put up in their games in Spain, you would mistake him for his brother. Going up against national teams he was getting double digit points and rebounds and was a dominant force in the paint. Hopefully he can play this way during the season.
