Let's review Villanova

[Novachap]

Cole Swider said in an interview that he loved Nova and is leaving because of the "logjam" at his position. He also said a couple of the guys are going to take advantage of the return year option. Given that, have to believe Samuels and hopefully Gillespie are back.

I think they are a decent team next year without them, but a very good team with them--even with the loss of JRE. Antoine will finally have a full offseason of prep, Moore is a stud, Daniels, Slater and Dixon will see lots of time and then add in the incoming top recruiting class of Patterson, Longino and Brizzi (hoping Gillespie is back to mentor the future PG). Layer on Samuels and Gillespie if they come back and that is a really solid team.

Will Cosby-Roundtree come back for an extra year? I believe he was hurt all of last season. Of course Samuels and Gillespie would be huge.

Kid has had a tough go the last few years with injuries. Would love to see him play again, but at one point Jay even mentioned he wasn't sure DCR will ever play again...

#Bang. I kind of feel like we're breaking some rules but I have to keep reminding myself that we're not. We'll take it. As CG just said: "Run it back" boys!

The Swider departure and not taking in any transfers makes a lot more sense now. CG, Moore, Daniels, BA and Jermaine...let's return to the small ball lineup and run up and down the court. You don't need a big in college BB anymore, do you?
