Thanks for compiling these. So far, I think people are vastly overrating Seton Hall and underrating Marquette. Losing Joey is like losing Rowsey. The defensive gains will outweigh the offensive loss. Marquette's defense stands to be very good.
The thing with Joey (and Sam) though, is the rebounding. Not sure we can make up for all those boards that Joey and Sam garnered. Jayce will get some offensive boards. But, Joey and Sam were darn good on the defensive boards. Theo and Ed were not great rebounders for 5s.
Don't underestimate Koby McEwen's rebounding. He's an incredible rebounder, especially from the back court.
What is interesting, statistically speaking, is the rebounding that Makus does. Last year, he had 8 games where he garnered 6 or more rebounds and another 5 games where he had 5 rebounds. That is quite a bit of production on the boards from the smallest guy on the court.
CollegeSportsMadness (they are the site that ranks the top 144 teams) has us at #27 overall, #4 in the Big East, and a 7 seed in the Tournament.
