I think with some luck we win 12-15 games this year .  Next year could be a turnaround year .  We get a legit 7 footer  and some more scoring to add to our young  roster .  Hopefully we see Garcia this year I don't know how much longer they can keep him on a medical leave . Boals has at least one more scholarship to give for 2018 hopefully another big around 6'8 . I hope also Ochefu  gets in the mix  more.  So far he hasn't shown much  but a lot of potential with his size and reach .  Who knows we win it all again in 2018-2019 !

Have any proof that Christie is legit? I can’t remember the last legit 7-footer in the AE. Or do you just mean that he’s legitimately 7 feet tall?

We should get to five wins with Norfolk State, and then a .500 conference record gets us to 13, a little better than that to 15 or so. I think 15 - and .500 overall if we split these next two - is a reasonable expectation with this group. We’ve been good enough against good competition to get there.

Based on a small sample size, Christie is definitely a project, but definitely better than Petras or Campbell. He is a prime candidate to redshirt, but with the lack of size next season, SB won’t have the luxury to sit him for a season. If he was any good, he wouldn’t being going to a AE team.  Like most big men entering the AE, he lacks body control, which makes him very susceptible to foul trouble. Also, like most big men, he is extremely slow to react to ball movement.  He needs more playing time and hopefully, gets the necessary big man coaching over the summer. It is very evident that he hasn’t received the necessary coaching to become a guaranteed good player in the AE.  Well, you can’t teach size and he does have time to improve.  He needs to attend a Jack Sikma Camp 😉, where he would learn post moves and not waste time running up hills on the north shore of Long Island 😂.  Lastly, I don’t think he’ll wake up one morning in his 4/5 years at SB and believe he’s a 3-Point shooter! 😂
