Questions that will need good answers next year

1) Can G and team put this year behind them, ie, the negative mindset that can come from losing; 2) can Amar, JS or PP take control of the point, play 32/game AND be consistant; 3)will Cleon come back; 4)can JP fix holes in game-ball handling and shot selection and move on to Big 5 POY; 5) can Eugene come back strong and learn to play D, gain 10 pounds, of muscle and be the O force that I think he can be;6) can BJ be a consistant shooter; 7)can Karl be a 15 min instant offense guy; 8)can the guys that don't start at point be contributors; 9)Can Tony gain some muscle and continue to improve; 10)any chance of finding a drop dead shooter(even if non-athletic) to create some O;11)can Screamer regain health/mobility; get to more games and tell Phil to sit down and shut up! I think we can do ALL of these things. Lets Go Explorers!!!

1) Sure, programs bounce back from terrible years all the time without firing their coach. Martelli had 22 wins over two seasons, Dunphy had 9 in a season, etc, etc.

2) In theory, I see Powell as the PG and Shuler as the 3rd guard. I'm not sure where I see Stukes.

3) I don't see any reason to speculate on something like this, but he's already transferred once so unless he's a graduate, I can't imagine it. And he should still have a major role; 6th man at worst, no?

4) I wouldn't bet on him for PoY because I think his role changes. Him adapting, like Galloway did, to being the guy willing to let others take over when he's off or take the big shot will be hugely important.

5) No idea. Hopefully he's just healthy.

6) No idea.

7) I think Harris' year for a key role is 2017-18, not next year.

8) In theory, depth at the 1-3 should be a massive strength for us if everyone can accept their role.

9) As long as "quality A-10 big" is what counts as improvement rather than "makes an all-conference team", I'd bet yes.

10) Not unless someone already in the program assumes that role.

11) As long as he does what his doctor says and stays hydrated, absolutely.
