It is wide open this year. The league has any number of teams that can win it.. Hall, X, Hoyas, Blue Jays and so on. It will be a gauntlet and I don't see anyone coasting through it.
Nova is talented and very deep. Deepest its been in a very long time. That said, Jay usually like a short bench and it will take a very long time for the freshmen to play D the way he demands. Antoine's recovery is key as well.
JRE is the real deal.. a double double waiting to happen. Samuels is going to be huge this year and someone that is really needed to shine is Swider..
Biggest concerns.... depth at the point and a true rim protector. Gillespie is good, not great. Is Moore capable to play some point?
They will be fun to watch, hopefully by the season time they are gelling. I say they finish 2nd or third, due to the youth. Could win it or could finish 6th! Nova traditionally always wins the games it is supposed to. This year, I think they will stumble a couple of times. That said, No One will want to play them come tourney time.
