Sanders is averaging 19 ppg,shooting 47% from 3 in 36 mpg.Think he made the right move?If he keeps this up we have every right to coitize Sha's management of him.Maybe we'll take him back next year for $1M+!!

Sanders possesses a skill this team badly needs in shooting. Unfortunately, he doesn't posses the only skill that Sha truly values and that is defensive acumen.

Expectations

This is not a good team at this point. It doesn't mean it doesn't become one but that seems a long way off.

I've said I believe we have the potential to be very good and I still feel that way despite two poor performances so far. Lots of good things need to happen to get that point. So far none are really showing themselves.

Middleton and Dual are a combined 3-16 in two games with seven total points. Between them and Coleman, at least two will need to take a huge stride for us to be successful. Jenkins, Toumi and Aligbe are showing they have the ability to pull their weight (albeit against weaker comp) and Addae-Wusu has to be solid as well.

At least one of the three centers is going to have to step up and be productive on a regular basis -- or the three of them are going to have to cobble together 40 minutes.

So far we've been decent defensively and look as if we haven't worked on offense at all. No shooters and no post players are a bad combination.

We're also already showing that our depth may be a fallacy. Aligbe and Addae-Wusu logged over 30 minutes today with Jenkins and Coleman at 28 and 27 respectively. Sha can't play his desired style if those last few players in the rotation can't hang with the opponent.

We need to start coming together quickly. Hofstra will be a test and Charleston looms (VCU rolled over BC on a neutral floor last night).

Oh ok. I guess we are going to question Shaheen's abilities now. Question for you:

What's more likely?

A. The team underperformed today because of bad coaching, or

B. This isn't a very talented team and it's going to take the coaching staff time to turn them into something?

I have to be honest, I don't see a great big east team on paper, or a very good one for that matter. We are going to need more than a few months of summer practices to get this team of transfers and mid major level guys to gel into something.

This isn't Sha's fault. This is what our NIL budget affords us.

I agree with you until the last 2 sentences unless you’re telling me you know Fordham has a bigger NIL budget. We should beat them on talent alone otherwise we should buy their players. It’s not about taking guys to develop for next year they could all be gone. It’s about winning now.
