"I think it's safe to say we'll be better at two or three positions, maybe four," Pearl said. "We'll have to wait until the recruiting thing is done. I hoped we were able to compete in the middle of the league, we weren't good enough to be able to do that. I'm hoping next year we can compete in the middle of the league. That gets you in position where postseason is possible, that's a step we can make.
"It won't be a monumental step, but it'll be progress. We will be deeper, we'll be longer, we'll be more athletic. We'll be younger and less experienced. Progress will be made."
^^^This^^^ is the quote from Pearl in that piece that I hope people hold on to next season. I think AU can be significantly better than this year with this class, but you still have to have at least something in place already to build on. If Cinnamon can get his shipth under control and guys like Shim-Sham-Shaheen, Lang and Thompson progress, I think we be all up in some post season. But I still think we'll need a year of patience, young Jedi's.
