    We should be Ok next year. I'm hoping for a NCAA team. But the year after that. if Henry and luke stay we will be a final 4 caliber team. you look at that Roster and there is just not a weakness, Height, skill, athletic, shooting.

    C:Luke, Heldt
    PF: henry, kyle
    Sf:Sandy, Wally Sacar
    OGuane, JJ, Cheathem
    PG:traci and Rowsey


    SR: JJ, WALLY, Luke
    JRuane, Sandy, washington, Rowsey
    Soph: Henry, Cheathem, Traci, Heldt, Sacar

    That is certainly optimistic, I think getting to the NCAA tournament this year will be over achieving for this team. That can be debated because it really depends how you feel about the roster makeup and potential of certain guys, but I think if Henry where to stay, to say we are a final 4 team is real bold, maybe sweet 16 team, but I don't know that just yet I'm ready to say these guys are better than any of our teams from the past 10 years. They very well ,at turn out to be better, but there is a long way to go.

    Of course that's not what this is all about, Kyle Washington would be a good pickup, not sure if I'd prefer him or another 2016 recruit, but it really depends how the staff views Washington's perspective. Don't forget, Washington has to sit out a year before he can play.

    I'm basing next years team on the fact that we return our 2 best players from last year in Duane and Luke. We add a 4th year player in Wally, and a lottery pick. That should be good enough to get us in the Top 40 in the country I think. I also think Traci (injury) and Sacar (very good all around game) will be better FR then all but maybe 50 kids. IE way better then there ranking.

    We have had other good teams but we rarely had size. Washington would be in his 4th year, along with Luke and Henry would be a Soph along with Heldt. How many teams could match up with that size and Exp? We would have 4 players between 6-9-6-11, 2 of which will probably play in the NBA. When I say final 4 team that means I think on paper we would be a top 10 team in the country. I just could not see how there would be 10 teams with stronger roster's then that.

    There is a lot of projecting in that theory. There is no way all of that pans out, and realistically I only see one NBA player in that group of bigs (Henry), I get that some of our freshman are underrated, but to expect them all to pan out isn't realistic. The reality is that Henry likely won't stay if he is projected as a lottery pick so it's kind of a mute point. I do think that Heldt, Fisher, and Washington is a really good front court, but I think you are under estimating how hard a final 4 is to get to.

    FYI, heard from a former player who has seen Traci and Sacar play since they arrived who said "they are really good"

    The only projecting i did was say that Sacar and Traci are going to be better then all but maybe 50 fr, and that Luke will be a NBA player. 2nd and 3rd string centers in the NBA are not better players then what Luke will be in 2 more years if he stays healthy. And Henry will be a lottery, which most people are projecting. Why you mention the frontcourt of Luke Heldt and Washington When I said right from the beginning that IF Henry and Luke stay for there Soph and Sr year. I also know how hard it is to win 4 games in the NCAA in a row, that is why I said final 4 caliber team, I did not say they would make the final 4. Big difference.

    How good is this Kyle Washington kid? Just going on stats, it looks like he played and contributed on a very strong Nc State team so I would imagine this would be a nice pick up. However, I've never seen him play and where he was ranked in high school is irrelevant to me.

    As a side note, I also think Luke plays in the NBA someday.

    To add on what you heard, I was also told this week that both kids seem really mature, and are really getting after it in workouts.
