I think it really hurts our chances at a serious "take the next step" type of season - We had a good chance with the whole squad back to beat a P5 team OOC and maybe take a game in the NCAAs. Now, ehh...
I still think we are MAC favorites. We dominated the conference after losing everyone last year. Sharron, Shammah, Lyles and co. are still a very good MAC team. Groce knows how to reload and get the pieces to fit better than anyone. Here's hoping we do some good portal-ing now
