Well, then. There’s a lot to write about after that past season… and I’m going to do a much longer “State of The Program” type piece in a little while after some of the initial declarations into the portal happen. That being said, a good place to start, as I did last year, is to do a self-assessment. What did I think going into 2023, what do I think I got right, what was a mix, and what did I miss? This also marks just a little more than two years that this site has been around. Its grown from basically a personal project to try to understand the bench rotation after 2022, into something that gets hundreds to thousands of eyes on each piece! I’d never have thought it, so let me take this moment to thank each and every one of you who are either here for the first time or who have read everything I’ve ever done (mercy on you, if that’s the case!).
Just like last year after the Furman game, I’m not going to do a specific review of the Colorado St. loss. This team will not be the same next year as it is now. However, a lot of the takeaways from that loss as well as others will inform much of my offseason content, including this piece.
This time, I’m going to be referencing my hopes for playing time and team management piece which can be found here. Unlike the year before last, this time I went through player by player and said what I hoped would happen for the year and why. So, now I’m going to reference that, compare what happened to what I wanted, and then give some thoughts. The goal here to both discuss how each player did, whether I thought they were utilized correctly, and then to assess myself and whether or not my initial impulses appeared correct so that I can learn from that moving forward. I’m keeping each of these sections relatively brief, but the conclusions are drawn from breaking down the full season’s worth of games and those can all be found here, if you’re interested. So, without further ado, let’s get into it!
——————————————————————————–
Anthony Robinson, C
Preseason Hope: 0mpg Redshirt
Actual: 0mpg Redshirt
Thoughts: I’ve often described our utilization of the redshirt as an outdated tactic that was better utilized when we had complete control of players unless they were willing to sit out for a year after a transfer. That’s for highly-touted recruits who bet on themselves to earn time and are both a threat to find opportunity elsewhere, and whose skillset would be challenging to replace if they left. I don’t mind the redshirt on Robinson who, by all accounts, was a raw prospect who committed planning on redshirting as he did. I’ve heard good things and am high on his future, and there were a few times this season (especially when we weren’t playing Minor) when we were getting beaten up on the inside that I wished that he was available. But, with the relative lack of a risk of losing him, with us having gone back to Minor, and with us having given quality minutes to Blake Buchanan all season, this was an opportunity for us to embrace our old approach and let Robinson grow within our system. Hopefully his presence next year will be a welcomed surprise for those who forgot about him on the roster this year.
Verdict: Correctly Aligned
Taine Murray, SF
Preseason Hope: 0mpg
Actual: 13.6mpg
Thoughts: This is a bit of a complicated one. It was definitely clear by the end of the season that we needed Taine as a core piece of the rotation. His shooting opened up the floor, he would occasionally take the ball to the rim with success, he was getting more comfortable in the midrange, and his defense, while not good, was improved from last season (even earlier than this) to the point where he wasn’t much of a drop off in comparison to the other options we were playing there. But, this was also primarily the result of Andrew Rohde not being a consistent value at the SF and our unwillingness to play Leon Bond or Elijah Gertrude. In an ideal world does Taine Murray need to get many minutes? Maybe not; but I think there’s a case to be made with this team that you needed to better take advantage of his shooting regardless of how you utilized anyone else. In fact, he appeared more often than Reece in our top ten most efficient two-man pairings this past season and was in half of our most efficient five-man lineups. I probably would not have found Taine as a viable option this season despite advocating for us to go to him more consistently than we did, so for that reason I’d say I was incorrect in my assessment on the whole… but if we’re living in a world where we have to play Taine Murray to have enough adequate shooting on the floor or to open up our sputtering offense, than I stand by the idea that doesn’t put us in a good spot. If for no other reason, it leaves us far too vulnerable defensively and his offensive contributions are still comparative. Too often he still disappeared on that end. I was flatly incorrect to think we shouldn’t give him a look but was much quicker to identify that we needed to use him more than the options we were using than the coaching staff.
Verdict: Incorrectly Misaligned
Dante Harris, PG
Preseason Hope: 7mpg
Actual: 13.7mpg
I wrote before the season that one of my biggest worries was Dante Harris being used simultaneously with Reece Beekman rather than as his pure backup. That doing so would be inefficient on offense and would clutter up time for players like Elijah Gertrude and Leon Bond to get on the floor. This is basically exactly what happened. Beekman and Harris’s teammate chemistry (per evanmiya.com) was the absolute worst on the team at -10.6 adjusted efficiency margin by a wide margin (over the -6.3 of Groves/Buchanan). Dante owned half of the four pairings with negative efficiency on the team and comprised 6 of the worst 10 pairings on the roster in addition to his pairing with Beekman, his pairing with Buchanan, Rohde, Dunn, and McKneely were all quite bad. His best five-man grouping was 13th best on the team. Basically, the team played its worst basketball throughout the season when he played… and he played about 35% of the time when he was healthy! He was serviceable at times when not playing alongside Reece, and CTB actually showed a little more restraint around having him in the game than I feared that he would given recent historical context around ball-handling, but he was ineffective on the whole and his minutes did keep at least one of Eli and/or Leon (likely Eli) off of the floor. And for what? His minutes were bad. Statistically worse than Eli’s. And, with the rumors that he’s probably going to be entering the portal (which, not to be too blunt, I think would be good for both parties), that time wasn’t invested in the future, either. This is one of those situations where preseason concerns proved to be spot-on and we would have been better off having Dante be one of those to fall out of the rotation as the season progressed.
Verdict: Correctly Misaligned
Elijah Gertrude, CG
Preseason Hope: 10mpg
Actual: 4.4mpg (including 18 DNPs)
Of the games he actually played in, Eli averaged almost that 10mpg – but he didn’t play in 18 of our 34 contests by our own choosing, so I’m downgrading that number to reflect reality. We redshirted him for our first 6, pulled that and played him against Texas A&M for his first contest after Harris sprained his ankle, played him pretty healthy minutes for 7 games after that… and then once Harris returned he either didn’t play, just played mop up minutes or, for some reason, played almost a half against UNC and (despite playing well) didn’t see that alter his PT. One cannot look at that play above, the athleticism and explosion displayed (one of many like this), think about the struggles that this team had on both ends of the floor at times this season, and think it was a correct decision to sit him as we did (especially for Dante and, at times, Rohde). Sure, he had a few turnovers and that, along with mistakes on some defensive rotations, was likely the biggest reason he sat; but he was a spark and he did things that only he could do on the roster. When he was in the game, good things typically happened despite the rookie mistakes we did make. Now, to be clear, I don’t think that playing Eli would have been the magic elixir that would have solved everything and kept us from getting blown out to end the season… but I do think we would have seen some improvement in our play with him on the floor that 10mpg with many of those Dante and some of those Rohde minutes going his way. I’ll talk about this in more detail later, but the use of Eli this season really didn’t make any sense, especially in the context of us struggling to find life at times. It was us being married to certain principles and the system more than actual results and being unwilling to lean into the potential shown and trust that it would grow with live reps. It gave him a taste but was a wasted opportunity to give him more run. Fortunately, and I say this with all fingers crossed, it sounds like he will be back next year… but that doesn’t mean the way we used him this year was correct. If anything, we’ll probably be wishing he had more game experience next year. But, the point remains that, really no matter what your outlook/goal for this team was – if you believed the roster wasn’t talented enough this year… you should have wanted us to play Eli more because he certainly increased our talent ceiling. If you wanted to field the best possible team this season… you should have wanted us to play Eli more as the team was playing better with him than, at the very least, Harris. If you wanted us to look ahead and to invest more in next season… you should have wanted us to play Eli more because his upside represents a brighter future than Harris or Rohde or Taine getting those minutes. This was a bad one. We need a little voice in CTB’s ear, whether that voice is Sanchez, JWilly, his conscience, media asking questions, even fans holding up signs in the arena… that says, “Play our talent!”
Verdict: Correctly Misaligned
Blake Buchanan, C
Preseason Hope: 10mpg
Actual: 15.1mpg
Here’s a rare time where I was overly conservative with one of our young big men vs. how they were treated by the staff and I’m happy to be wrong here. While my general idea that I hoped Buchanan got a crack at some solid rotational playing time was accurate, I under-estimated how much he’d be called on. Some of that was out of necessity early-on as the staff didn’t view Jordan Minor as ready to play out of the gate, but Buchanan’s minutes remained pretty steadily in the mid-teens to low 20s throughout most of the close to the season until finally getting down to 6 against N.C. State and 11 against CSU. While a lot of discussion has happened around what Buchanan is not yet – he’s not strong yet, he’s not a polished offensive player yet, a lot more focus should be on what he is and what he’s shown. He’s been one of the most heavily utilized freshmen big men in CTB’s tenure, he’s incredibly mobile in defensive rotations, he hits the offensive glass well, is very active, has moments as a shot blocker, has good and active hands on defense, and has shown flashes of a little push shot and turnaround jumper to go along with some ability as a rim-runner. With an offseason of weight training and continuing to work on his offensive game (and his screening), Buchanan is incredibly well-positioned to build off of this momentum that he got this year and to play a big role for us both next year and beyond. And, it should be said that while some of Buchanan’s usage this year was undoubtedly through what CTB viewed as necessity; it was a great example of how you can and should be utilizing freshman talent like this. When he’s playing well and with confidence, like against Florida, lean into him and when he’s struggling, like that last game against N.C. State, scale him back. But the consistent role and minutes throughout the season are almost assuredly going to be valuable for him and us.
Verdict: Incorrectly Misaligned
Leon Bond III, SF
Preseason Hope: 16mpg
Actual: 8.7mpg (Including 10 DNP)
This is probably where I was most misaligned with what actually happened this year but the outcome is more ambiguous than the Gertrude situation. It’s clear that CTB and staff preferred that Bond be a PF this season and, while they were willing to give him SOME run at SF, they did not see that as a fit for him within our system. It makes sense given how we run most of our offenses. Bond was great in the mid-range but wasn’t a threat to shoot the three and didn’t have that handle to take many SFs off of the bounce. He was also too small to play the PF; couldn’t get his shot off against much bigger defenders and struggled securing the glass and contesting their shots. On the other hand, he was a great defender at the SF – the best on our team outside of Dunn when he played there, and there were unique mismatches he could have provided on the offensive end out of that slot if we had been willing to adjust our offense or to feature him. For example, playing him in the Inside Triangle and going to him regularly in the low post against opposing SFs is something I wish we had tried with any kind of frequency. Backdoor cuts and curling to the mid-range would have also been fine out of Sides, and if we had been willing to run more and/or send him to the offensive glass hard, that could have also helped. There was a rigidity to our style that was unwilling to accommodate Bond. Then as the season wore on and we started playing Ryan Dunn at the SF some with Jake Groves at the PF along with a Center, those lineups did make Bond more obsolete. For a team so focused on the defensive side of the ball, I’m surprised we didn’t lean more into playing Bond at the SF with Dunn at the PF alongside a Center, though. That’s a MUCH harder team to score on than with Rohde or Murray trying to help our back end help side rotations. The question might become, “how do we score?” but if we’re scoring under 50 points in 5 of our last 9 games anyway, what’s the concern? It’s not like Dante was helping our ability to score points, but he was getting time without providing the same defensive impact. Imagine a lineup with Beekman, Gertrude, Bond, Dunn, and Minor (or Buchanan, depending on the matchup) on the floor. How much better is our defense? Is our offense really that much worse or would we just have to score in other ways like second chance points, individual athleticism, transition, etc.? I don’t know the answer to the question because we never saw it, but in a world where we were in-and-out of looking for answers all season and where there were many times where our role players were neither helping us offensively nor defensively I’d have loved to see more Leon Bond at the SF. There’s no doubt we’d have been better defensively… and I’m not convinced that if he shared most of that time with Taine (and Dunn) that we’d have been any worse off offensively; possibly better. This is the greatest example of where we should have more flexibility in how we run our system so that we can play the talent we have rather than trying to force them on the floor out of position and then giving up when that doesn’t work.
Verdict: Correctly Misaligned
Jacob Groves, PF
Preseason Hope: 17mpg
Actual: 20.3mpg
Groves was one I was probably a little higher on than most. My lone concern was that we might fall in love with Small Ball like we did last season at the expense of Blake Buchanan’s time and to the detriment to the defense. Much to my surprise, we did rely on Small Ball heavily to start the season but it was at the expense of Jordan Minor, not Blake Buchanan. Groves was our only incoming transfer who actually surpassed the expectations that I (and probably most) had for him. He was a better defender than I expected him to be, although that was still his limitation, especially at the PF position. And we were at our best offensively when he was on the floor – he was in each of our top 5 most efficient 5-man offensive lineups; his spacing/shooting ability from the PF was a welcomed addition as probably our worst collective team trait. But, remarkably, his 46% three-point shooting was by far the best mark of his career – 8 percentage points higher than his previous best, which was last season at Oklahoma – and he did it on 109 attempts, which was also the highest of his career. And, even though we did play Groves at Center probably too much at the beginning of the year, we didn’t fall in love with it, getting back to playing a true Center most of the time starting half-way through the season, only playing smaller when we were pressed for answers offensively (which, I still think playing BIGGER was a better solution there but, for the point of this discussion, I didn’t think we were stubborn about playing small this year like we were last so those fears weren’t realized). In fact, I’d say that Jake Groves was probably our biggest unexpected positive this season and is a good example for potential portal or future stretch 4s that they can come here and be successful. At only a 3mpg difference from my hope, staying flexible with how we used him, and not getting locked into undesirable options, I’d say that we were…
Verdict: Correctly Aligned
Jordan Minor, C
Preseason Hope: 20mpg Starter
Actual: 13.8mpg (32 games played, Started 18)
Prior to the rumors just before the season that Minor was farther down in the rotation than most expected, I thought I was going to be wrong with this hope… but the other way around. I expected us to play Jordan Minor too much keeping players like Blake Buchanan off of the floor. Always kept on my toes, we went the other way with Minor who, having come from exclusively playing zone defense his first four years took some time to adjust to the Pack Line. This was another player who had a hard time earning CTB’s confidence primarily due to his defensive rotations and ability to hedge and recover. And yet, we struggled defending the post and securing the glass the entire first part of the season when he barely played, and it was us inserting him into the starting lineup against Wake Forest and then sticking with him that sparked our eight game winning streak and our best basketball in the middle of the season. Once he cracked the lineup and we benefitted from his strength defending the post, his screening, and his ability to finish an opportunity around the hoop (one of the only guys who was able to do so), the question had to be asked… did he really need to be so buried for so long? It requires a lot of a fan to accept that it wasn’t until THAT specific moment that we could afford to go to him because he just figured it out vs… we were desperate because what we were doing wasn’t working, we were getting beat up inside, and we decided, “let’s try it.” I’m glad that we did try it, but also believe it’s another sign that perhaps the factors we’re clinging to that determine playing time (re: Minor, Gertrude, Bond) might not be the most accurate assessments of what works best on the floor. The interesting thing was that, despite Minor being inserted into the starting lineup as a clear positive shift for our team this season, CTB kept straying away from it; getting tempted by other things or scared off by a mistake here or there. He trimmed Minor’s minutes all the way down to 8 in the loss vs. Pitt at home, to 14 @VT despite Minor being our best player in the first contest against them, but time and time again Minor kept proving why we should have been more loyal to his minutes (and, candidly, that we should have tried posting him up more when the offense was stalling). He was our best player in his 25 minutes against UNC, scoring 12 points on 5-9 from the floor and grabbing 10 rebounds, his defense on Quintin Post was massive, especially down the stretch in the ACC Tournament, and his defense on players like Efton Reid and DJ Burns in general (while Burns got the best of him in the ACC Tournament) allowed our defense in general to play straight-up against big post presences as opposed to having to warp our game plan to defend those players. While I do think Minor was less impactful than we hoped after getting him in the portal; we needed to trust him sooner in the season and then to keep him at or even above that 20 minutes most nights as opposed to consistently looking for reasons to play him less and then coming back to him only when we were getting killed inside.
Verdict: Correctly Misaligned
Andrew Rohde, SF
Preseason Hope: 25mpg Starter
Actual: 24.5mpg (33 games played, Started 27)
Well… I got my wish! Kidding aside, this is one where CTB needed to update his portfolio from what he expected Rohde to bring to the roster vs. what he was actually getting. I wrote before the season that Rohde could play 1-3… and that was true at St. Thomas… but that wasn’t true at the ACC level. The biggest issue is that Rohde is not an ACC SF, or at least he wasn’t this season. At St. Thomas the strength of his offensive game came from being a ball-dominant rhythm player who could use his 6’6″ size to play over smaller players. On defense, it was using his length to bother smaller players as he’s a surprisingly decent on-ball defender considering his lack of foot speed (which showed up a lot off the ball). But, at SF in the ACC, he didn’t have an advantage shooting over almost anyone guarding him and didn’t have the quickness or the strength to get around them. This resulted in a player who saw such heavy bulk minutes due to his mind for the game and his hopeful offensive contributions really not helping the offense a ton aside from some pretty savvy passing at times. His three-point % actually dipped from 32% all the way down to 25.7% and he averaged 4.3ppg and was shut out entirely EIGHT different times for a player who started 27 games and played almost 25mpg (25.2 in games he actually played, he was benched against GT in the final game of the season). Interestingly, lineups where he played PG or SG actually did pretty well, including our best five-man lineup with at least 20 possessions (but still a very small sample size) where he played SG and Taine played SF, and that’s because his size started to scale a bit both with who he was matched up against and with our collective team length. In fact, his highest scoring game and probably most impactful all around (13 points against Texas A&M) was when he played 37 minutes and was the primary backup PG for Reece with Dante just having been injured. With the ball in his hands more often, playing against PGs and SGs, he took his highest shot volume of the season and he added 6 rebounds. That game and the following one against Syracuse were probably his two best of the season before we entered a string of breaks, he suffered a foot injury, and everything unraveled from there. But, in my opinion, it really was one of those positional fit issues. He wasn’t well-suited to play SF on either side of the ball, but both Beekman and McKneely needed volume minutes 1-2 and so we kept forcing him out there no matter how he was playing on any given night. It wasn’t until after 20 games of the season, in the second game against N.C. State, that his minutes took a dip under 20 – going all the way down to 12mpg, and even though his stretches with reduced minutes often coincided with our best basketball because it meant we were in our bigger lineup more as well as playing Taine more, just like CTB kept straying away from Minor he kept straying toward Rohde. In both of their defense, there were games where this worked down the stretch. Rohde’s ability to handle pressure was valuable @FSU and he had some opportunistic shooting against B.C. in the ACC Tournament, but there were more games where his presence bogged down what we were doing, offering little shooting and no creation off of the bounce, while struggling to close out or rotate on defense. CTB clearly thought, as I did before the season, that Rohde playing well was going to be a key to our season; but he needed to pivot away from him much sooner, giving shorter run and being willing to scale up when he was playing well would have been much better.
Verdict: Incorrectly Aligned
Isaac McKneely, SG
Preseason Hope: 29mpg Starter
Actual: 32.2mpg (33 games played, 33 Started)
I’m going to call this one aligned as there was only a 3mpg difference and the disagreement element is more of a quibble, which I’ll talk about in a second. McKneely took 182 threes and shot 44.5% from deep. He was by far and away our most lethal on volume and most feared/respected offensive player. In fact, defensive game plans were often just face guarding iMac as much as possible, attempting to run him off of the three-point line, and letting almost anyone else on our team beat you. That’s the kind of player you need to sink those kinds of minutes into both because he can punish break downs but also because the space he creates and attention he gets should be something we could design to exploit. Unfortunately, we mostly ran our offense the same and attempted to play mostly through Beekman and McKneely despite the attention he was getting and the lack of comparative shot quality. CTB would often talk about how teams were face guarding Isaac and “zoning (him) off.” And yet… we mostly continued to force our offense as normal and seemed at a loss when we couldn’t get clean looks. iMac clearly had the green light but that often extended to us not playing through other less talented (but more open) players and funneling difficult shots through him in the midrange. I think this played a big part in the hesitancy of many of our guys offensively, but we’ll cross that bridge in another piece. That being said, when he wasn’t playing through an ankle injury, his defense was solid all year and so there was good reason to have him on the floor as often as we did. There were games like against B.C. in the ACC Tournament (when he was hampered with an ankle) where he was cold all game but made huge plays/shots late. There were games like @G.T. where he was healthy but ice cold early and then became a microwave in the second half, and there were games like against N.C. State in the ACC Tournament where he entered a newly found “takeover” mode where his shots from outside were both difficult as well as deadly. I’m excited that we (hopefully) have two more years of this guy as iMac at the height of his powers could be the most deadly sniper we’ve had under CTB at the college level (and that says a lot)! Improve that game off of the bounce, reading a defense and reacting to how it’s playing him, and creating for others, and look out!
Verdict: Correctly Aligned
Ryan Dunn, SF/PF
Preseason Hope: 33mpg Starter
Actual: 27.5mpg (34 games Started)
I’m going to say I was off on this one because a 5.5mpg difference is significant and because I under-estimated how much teams would be able to play off of Ryan Dunn and that would cause issues for our offense more broadly. Now, some of this was on him becoming much more passive and timid once teams did start cheating off of him throughout the season vs. how assertive he was playing offensively at the beginning of the season. Some of that was on coaching; not designing more offense to get him cutting toward/running toward the rim, not encouraging him to make more plays on the offensive end as a cutter or off the bounce, not intentionally increasing the opportunistic tempo (Dunn was electric in transition), saying things like (paraphrased), “if you have an open look take it… but focus on your defense and impacting the game through rebounding,” rather than making a focused effort to build his confidence on offense throughout the season. Ryan Dunn was, for my money, the best defensive player in the country this season but was completely in his head offensively… as we saw from how many free throws he airballed and how reluctant he was to make anything happen even when teams gave him sometimes 10 feet of space! But yet, when he was just playing and reacting, he had some skilled and beautiful offense from the turnaround jumpers in the post to the catch and release threes as the end of the shot clock. If you scheme to post him up (especially when he’s playing the SF) and force him those reps (and tell him he needs to take them) throughout the season, scheme him plenty of back door cuts and designed lobs, make him a regular option in the offense as opposed to someone you try to hide and play around, well, we may have had some ugly moments but I think we’d have benefitted from it over the long run, especially by the end of the season. Still, a player like Dunn has to be able to supply his own confidence as well and to take the initiative himself when things are stagnant. Given how he did play and how off the rails his offense went… we can talk about what we could have done differently to help that, but there’s no guarantee it would have worked. CTB did have to and was correct at times in reducing his minutes to allow for more offense (the end of the first B.C. game immediately comes to mind). So, I’m going to ding myself here for not scaling back my minutes hoped for him a little, especially considering he was similar offensively last season.
Verdict: Incorrectly Misaligned
Reece Beekman, PG
Preseason Hope: 33mpg Starter
Actual: 32.7mpg (34 games Started)
Not a ton to be said here other than it was cool being within .3 on this one. Interestingly, this was the exact amount that Beekman averaged last season and down from his 35.1mpg in 2021-2022 despite there being more of a need to play him this season than either of those previous two (as we had Kihei to run point when he wasn’t in those years). I’m fine with it and think it’s a good indicator, actually, that CTB rode his star and most important player less comparative to the seeming need to play him. It’s better load management and offers more opportunity for growth of the players behind him (although I wish we’d have used it differently). That number also accounts for the fact that we scaled up his usage (as we should have) toward the end of the season as every game was do or die. He finished the year playing 37, 32, 35, 35, 43 (OT), 42 (OT), prior to 35 in the loss to CSU. That’s a really good adjustment of showing the restraint to pace him over the season but then holding nothing back to close (likely) his career. Given how heavily we’ve used key players, especially ball handlers, over the past few seasons and (my perception) how that lead to some wear and tear on bodies by the season’s end; this was a positive development. We certainly can’t say that we didn’t have enough involvement by Reece this season. Thank goodness for him!
Verdict: Correctly Aligned
In Conclusion
All-in-all I feel pretty good about my preseason thoughts and wish more of them had come to fruition this year. I primarily missed in spirit on Rohde and Taine… but strongly feel that if we had been able to adapt what we do a little bit to fit our personnel and talent, that we could have had a higher level of performance. Personally, I find this to be a helpful exercise to revisit how I viewed the roster prior to having opinions shaped by watching the games to fold those lessons learned into future prognostications.
Again, if you’re wondering more about the thought process that went into some of these player evaluations, the home page has all of the game break downs which can serve as a narrative over the entire season.
My next piece is going to be much broader in scope as I mentioned during the intro. It will be a discussion around where we are, how we got here, and my thoughts on the best path forward. Until then, may we have some good portal news (in terms of positive exits and retentions) in the meantime. FWIW, assuming no dramatic surprises (like players heavily utilized in the rotation last year) the only player among those reasonably in question that I feel like we’d clearly benefit from leaving in the portal is Dante Harris (not to be too blunt about it) and the only borderline player who I feel like would be devastating to lose would be Elijah Gertrude (although that seems clearly trending in a positive direction from his recent sponsor partnership). So, we’ll see how that plays out.
Fingers-crossed for a fresh and evolving offseason. Go Hoos!
