I'm not so sure Sheldon is a lock to start. From everything I've heard, the coaching staff are really high on Dawson. Sounds like he recovered from his hand injury and put on a good amount of muscle in the off-season.

The same can be said for Schwieger. Schwieger showed a lot of promise last season, but I'd bet Watson's experience in the A10, athleticism, and seniority boost him up to the starting position. From what I've heard That said Ben is a much better 3-pt shooter than Des, so it could vary a bit from game to game.

I'm super excited to see how this team plays next year and can't wait to be proven wrong about all of this a week after the start of the season.

Hard to say.lots of players. lots of potential. It was easy with Moser...you played defense and didnt make turnovers on offense you played...Last year it seemed we focused more on trying to get the offense opened up specifically in the beginning..defense was suspect...So trying to read tea leaves of where the focus will be,,is difficult. Will we return to hard rock, hard ass defense..or continue to open up the O..We played some pretty bad defense last year.
Quise Stan if you are new,,,welcome
