The two 6"9ish new forwards were a breathrough in my mind. I remember being glad the one fresh guard was coming in at 6 "5. Great article.

Well-researched. I too think we are on the verge of being one of the nation's top 10 programs. Jay is reaching out to our local, regional and national alumni and the University's name is out across the country. My only regret is we're not playing more of the BIG EAST's midwestern brethren out here this winter. But I'll be at Marquette Jan. 2 and try to make it out east for a game or two.

Good points. But, that is the same situation that UNC, Kansas et al find themselves in year after year. There are plenty of 5-star players year after year, it’s good sale to say “Hey, if you come here, you’ll be drafted like Yarou and Cheek, but also be part of a serious title contender.”

We haven’t seen Wright handle that particular situation yet. The time might soon come though.

See Gonzaga and Xavier. the only problem will be when the Big East splits and Nova is forced to play in a non BCS (midmajor) league. See Gonzaga and Xavier.

I don't really know much about the bigs this year, hopefully they can match up relatively well with the rest of the Big East.  Any info on them would be much appreciated.
