The final member of the class, Sean O'Mara, could be a nice replacement for Stainbrook down the line.
Seton Hall could actually be pretty good, as they add an excellent recruiting class headed by top 15 player Isaiah Whitehead and top 50 player Angel Delgado (though I believe that Delgado is a risk to qualify). They also return three of their best players from this past year's group (which was pretty dangerous in their own right) in Sterling Gibbs, Patrik Auda, and Brandon Mobley, and Jaren Sina had a solid freshman season and could be a real weapon as their designated shooter next year.
I think Butler could be fairly capable next year, as they return everyone but Fromm and Marshall and more importantly get Roosevelt Jones back. I think Andrew Chrabascz could be a standout player next year (excellent efficiency stats as a frosh), and hope that a year of experience will work out some kinks in Elijah Brown's game (basically, that shooting the ball does not have to be his first, second, and third option). Not a great recruiting class coming in, and they need to get some of the talented Indianapolis transfers (Eron Harris, Ronnie Johnson, Jeremy Hollowell) on the market.
Nova will be awesome again, as they return everyone but James Bell. I think that Josh Hart can capably replace him, and I look for incoming freshman Phil Booth to give them another perimeter shooting threat off the bench. Also, I really like potential of Dylan Ennis and think he could blossom as an upperclassman.
I think Georgetown could be pretty good, but they could use an immediately eligible PG to add to their backcourt depth. Anthony Lee also would have been awesome for them, but he elected to choose Ohio State. Really like DSR, think Cameron and Trawick are solid wing players, and their recruiting class is the best in the conference (and Peak, White, and Coepland all had great senior seasons).
Providence loses Cotton and Batts, but get a healthy Kris Dunn back (hopefully at least) and also have a strong recruiting class coming in (Lindsay, Bentil, and Chukwu could be a dynamic front line for them once they mature). I am hoping that top remaining PG Devonte Graham signs with them in the spring.
