Of course the season is not over so things could turn sour.
I didn't make a prediction but Spengler, Woodard, Neal, Cousins and probably Booker have played better than I expected.
Hornbeak probably not as good.
They are a better team than I expected. And I feel we are better than last year. Didn't expect us to be much better, maybe a little better. I usually don't make the predictions of what the record would be. No good reason. Just don't do it.
I didn't think we would miss M'Baye and Pledger or Fitz that much. The way Kruger pushed the 3 frosh guards last year was a message to me that he needed them to play well because he felt they were needed to get to the level he wanted to reach.
I felt that M'Baye was pretty talented but was disappointed in his shooting ability and his judgment of some of his moves. Really expected him to be a lot better than he was. Pledger was up and down. Fitz would probably have been good off the bench this year as he could provide some quick points.
