Redbirds Next Year

What do you think? Very probable that we will struggle at times scoring, but have one of the toughest non-cons in history and a great recruiting class coming in. I think we'll be 2-3 range

He said frontline, not newcomers. Read better.

Either two or three, unless Marty suddenly becomes a good coach or ISUb is better than I expect. Outside shot at Loyola making a real run, but I still don't have much faith in Moser.

If the Redbirds had Lynch, I'm predicting two without a doubt and challenging for #1. I can't predict them that high without knowing how they respond without him.

I'd guess 13-5 or 14-4, personally. Win one or two of the really big games they have and they have a good shot at the NCAA tournament.

Thanks for the info! I don't know enough about the front court to make a reasonable prediction other than; Redbirds finish top 4. I'm guessing (don't know) that N'Diaye won't be very good as a freshman. The other bigs are only moderately big, and while there is depth, they are more similar to Loyola than last year's ISUr.

The good news is the first four. I really like Lee, DAP, MM, and Hawkins. A big (two really) stepping up will make all the difference. Perhaps Barnyard and Brewer will perform at a high level. McCloud and Wills are nice off the bench.

UNI, ISUr, and LUC are in a similar situation. Good backcourt and wings, with tons of questions in the front court. LUC doesn't have the depth of the other two, but they have a first five whereas UNI and ISUr have only a first four.

Evansville is the other threat to be at or near the top of the Valley, but their situation is completely different. Not super excited about the Sycamores next season, but they have some talent. MSU or Drake might start to show something next season.
