I hear you, but I think people are going to be surprised at how many really good players Prov actually has. There are going to be serious battles for minutes even with Dunn out (hope not though).

Brilliant post Hall. Ryan A clearly "wasn't ready" when he led the team in minutes played and assists as a freshman. Did you see how much he "wasn't ready" when he dropped 32 in his BE debut or when he hit a clutch 3 at the buzzer which led to a W vs. Syracuse. In fact the BE coaches all agreed he "wasn't ready" when he finished 2nd in BE ROY voting last year. And when thinking of him as a player this year they thought he probably still "wasn't ready" so they just voted him to the preseason 2nd BE team. Which other players do you think aren't ready this year? McDermott? Semaj?

Troll out on another stroll.

Hall either your pirate costume is starting to cut off the circulation to your brain or you simply are not very good at evaluating college talent. Case in point, you think that Ryan Arch "wasn't ready" yet Jay Wright and every other BE coach did not agree with that assessment. Good call on that one buddy.
