I look at our schedule and players on our basketball team and I wonder how we are going to score within the first 12 seconds of having the ball in our hands.... Holly crap , I am concerned to say the least... The learning curve for Neal Brown took some time and he is still growing and sure Neal had the worst hand ever dealt his way with the game changing / Covid days and Big 12 level of play & catch up our football program needed ... Our Basketball program is not like our football program and the big changes have already happening... so the learning curve to play at this water down level of play of the Big 12 , will be a challenge for our new guy... 20 win season is the goal and I don't see that in this team... oh, 20 wins in a season is always the first goal... we need more power in the paint and on the boards... lets go mountaineers!!!!
After the commitment from G Joseph Yesufu, former MVC 6th Man of the Year, we still need a scorer and a Big to fill out the rebuilt roster. We're in much better shape than we were at the beginning of last season with only 7 eligible players as long as these guys remain healthy.
