Buie will stink for weeks at a time (he already did, in fact), and will try too hard, and will turn it over too much, and will foul too fast. Most nights, probably.
Kopp will be content to let the game come to him, and will consequently wind up with three shots in a game from time to time.
Young will look big and slow and confused some nights. Because he will be all of those things.
Nance will always be tantalizing — built like he was born specifically at this time to be the next KD — and will often be terrible.
Beran will be too skinny until March, and Jones maybe wasn’t the Pardon 2 I hoped for (to be fair, Pardon hadn’t yet debuted this time as a freshman).
But what we need to see is upside. The belief that these kids can put it together. And it’s pretty clear that the raw materials are there, in some form or another, with (many) of them.
There’s lots of upside. Sports are more fun when you can get irrationally excited. (points thumb)
