I remember watching Wennington go against Patrick Ewing, Ronny Seikaly, and Ed Pickney in the Big East. He was VERY skilled and crafty. The 80s lumberjack look may have lead some to think he was less athletic and skilled than he really was at the time. Nice NBA career as a role player as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is even your biggest gripe. It would be worse next year. We would also be a Top 10 team with Edey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would definitely need 3-4 more perimeter players to help. And big man centered teams are not usually successful tournament time. We would jut get up for the let down. I fail to see how much different next year with Edey we would be than this year. We would be better, but how much?

If we lose, it won’t be because of Edey. It’ll be because we couldn’t stop Loyer, Smith and Jones. Edited January 16 by Hoosier4Life53 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think cups would do fine defensively, but losing any scoring by him starting would be a big hit. We need to score tonight from multiple levels and people 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to score tonight from multiple levels and people all around, not disparaging Cupps by any means, but XJ can hound the ball more, and provides more of a scoring threat. We are going to have to win the battles 1-4 + bench to win this game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
