Especially if one of them brought 7 rebounds as a freshman. If the new recruit was 6''8" and averaged 17 and 7 people as a freshman would be singing hallelujah. Pridgen is 6'5", big deal. We had a player a few years a ago who was considered undersized for a center and he seemed to rebound ok. Maybe I'm optimistic but we will be in the top half of the conference next year and top 3 the year after.

Again, how many times do we have to say it here Cacok is a generational talent and clearly people here take that for granted thinking that’s just going to happen again.

You seem to forget, Cacok only got starters minutes for one year under Keatts and we had three first place finishes and two NCAA appearances. We have a really soild core of players lined up right now. Assuming Dodd stays, we'll be fine next year even if Steere doesn't play. And then, our roster starts looking really good.

2020-2021 worst case

Phillips(so), Carr(fr), Okauru(sr), Gadsden(sr), Estime(sr), Sims(jr), Tolefree(jr), Whitley(fr), Boggs(so), Bowen(sr), Dodd(so)

2021-2022

Phillips(jr), Carr(so), Tolefree(sr), Sims(sr), Whitley(so), Pridgen(so), Boggs(jr), Dodd(jr), Steere(jr)

2022-2023

Phillips(sr), Carr(jr), Whitley(jr), Pridgen(jr), Boggs(sr), Dodd(sr), Steere(sr)

This is the future roster of UNCW if we don't add a single player. Again, pretty damned impressive. That 2022-2023 roster could win the CAA with just those 7 players with those juniors and seniors. And we'd still have Carr, Whitley and Pridgen in 2023-2024 to build on.

I don't forget that at all, look at the rosters that KK won with much bigger rosters his first two years, one without CaCok and one before he blossomed. KK year 1, 6 guys over 6'8 and Bryan was 6'7, year 2, 5 Guys over 6'8 and Cacok and Bryan 6'7.

You guys absolutely murdered CB for recruiting no size, but now 90% of you are giving Siddle who hasn't coached a game here a free pass for not doing the same thing. I'm at least consistent in my criticism, you guys all were on one side of the fence, now on the opposite for the very same topic.

Look, i think he can win here, and honestly think he will(eventually). But to essentially toss away a year is silly. Is that where we are now, you guys are just ok scrapping a year? Sorry, but i'm not.
