Barkley "guaranteed" AU will be making the dance next year.

Looks like Bruce will have to put up or shut up. Expectations/demand are only growing


What happens when the incoming freshmen are better than the rising sophomores, start in front of them, and we are "young" again?

Then those freshmen will have experienced players that have been in our system instead of on other teams and have tons of minutes logged to help guide them unlike this year's players.

Other teams freshmen that start have easier transitions because they have more experienced players to help guide them.

We only had 4 players that logged relevant minutes for AU in 2015-16 on this year's team. Here's the minutes
-TJ Dunans
-TJ Lang
-Bryce Brown
-Horace Spencer

I really think that had much more influence on our struggles than the fact that we started 4 freshmen (one of whom should've been in HS)

Next year even though we'll still be young and low on upperclassmen, we return a metric frick ton of minutes and playing experience. That is huge for us.
