My expectations for this team are definitely tempered. I thought we could be an ncaa tourney team at the beginning of the year, but I had completely different expectations of various players, including-
Lathon-- thought he would be a consistent 8-11pt scorer each night. He's been absent most the season, though
Tarke-- he was a big reason I thought we had potential. Dude got buckets at NJIT, but he's sadly not allowed to play
Efe-- thought we'd see a lot more minutes out of him. Instead he's being benched and given spot minutes, which has hurt his ability to impact the games.
Vila-- I didn't expect much from him, but I expected him to hit open shots better than he does.
On the positive side, Williams has definitely exceeded my expectations. I knew he was good, just didn't know he was THIS good.
Not sure how the season will end, but I think we have a reasonable shot at an NIT invitation. Nothing about this team tells me they're anywhere close to competing for the conference championship, but who knows. Cusa is a crapshoot at times
