Potentially...especially now that there are rumors Brunson will not return.

If Brunson leaves...good chance. If he doesn't and Booth comes back close to 100%, look out. Booth, Brunson and DiVincenzo is top a 5 backcourt nationally IMO. Bridges and Paschall on wings is a lot of length and athleticism (with Top 50 frosh Samuels subbing in) and then Spellman with a year in the program under his belt. I think he'll have a similar impact as Patton did for CU last year.

Is Brunson really draftable?

In a point guard driven league- sure he is. And not sure how much higher he could get.

Jay can bring in JC and the 12 Disciples for all I care. This is FINALLY the year in which the Radnorites get dethroned. Enough already of the Kansas-esque, Gonzaga-esque - "Villanova and the dwarfs". This is the rough and tumble Big East, not the lowly WCC or lowly Big-12...enough. Where is Wragge? Get him or his little brother.

Brunson should stay.

True, Wragge and Gibbs could have broken the wrists of Nova's best shooters.

Dear Jaxalum,
I suggest you lay off the 151 rum. Try Bacardi Black or Gosling's, either with splash of Rose's Lime or 7-10 drops of bitters (my recommendation!) You'll see -- the lower proof stuff is very tasty, and it will enable you to watch an ENTIRE game in panic mode before passing out. Take it from the ole prof!

Not like they needed them to write essays for "class" anyways.

Perfect!

Brunson confirmed today he is returning to Nova. Good move all the way around.

Brunson is a bright kid and a great player. Excellent move...the correct move.

Go 'Nova...Go Big East!
