ford implied that the team is unfamiliar with each other (naturally). lots of question marks, but individual talent. seemed to think there is much room for improvement. will start 2-4 "new" players. my guess for starters: gueye, rodriguez, TSM, pollicelli, diallo/sewell. if that's right its a big lineup.
not clear but i think he said no fans until conference games, maybe later.
ill say it again, its harder and harder to get excited about your team when the players turnover every year- even when the incoming players are talented. that's of course a function of NCAA rules and external events.
