This makes a successful season for Castle much more likely. They have great complimentary skillsets. We will win a bunch of games because he's back--no doubt. As much as people like to bag on him, that's a national championship PG.

What's our ceiling for next year with Newton back? NC6? FF4? Elite 8? asking for takes from senior members with vast knowledge...

We are relying on a freshman starter + 2 sophomores. Another freshman probably starts unless we pick up a transfer SG. And our bench depth is going to be mostly freshman.

I think we can be a top-25 tournament team and make a lucky push for a S16 if we gel, but I don't see this as a championship-level season. Freshman are supposed to go through growing pains... and we have a lot of 'em. Can't expect the same ability to close out games or make the big play in a pivotal moment as guys like Joey or Alleyne.

For me, this feels like an enjoy the development season, and get excited about Clingan/Castle going in the lottery.

A Castle Newton 6’7 backcourt has me pitching a tent a 8am. Today is a good day
For real they’ll be in passing lanes, running dudes off the three point line, and rebounding heavily even from the backcourt with that size and length.

I have a feeling Stewart is going to slot in at the 3 spot

Stewart is a big strong dude...weighs around 220-230...likely to get time at the 4 in my humble opinion...he looks like he could run some people over...
