Continuity.
A word rarely used at the top level of College Basketball.
A word that has translated to success in almost every way that is considered special.
Bradley
Delly
Carter
Awaka
Krivas
If we can somehow Re-Sign Carter Bryant, then this will be the first time I will admit Tommy built something 100% special and did so with a real plan. Not just falling into it nor panicking.
When you have 4 guys coming back, hopefully 5...
Then you add KOA PEAT, an Arizona Legend already + Brayden Burries... 2 McDonalds All Americans, Top 5-15 Players incoming to College as a whole, then a true, playable asset like Dwayne Aristode and the Noteriety, Hype, and actual INTRUIGE of Bryce James who I really feel has a lot of Game...
We will finally be able to lean on that PGU Mantra again too.
This is how you not only put a Program on the Map Organically for the first time TOMMY, but it is how you sustain Success... TOMMY.
I have been waiting for this moment for a long time and being able to Re-Sign Carter would CONFIRM to me that TOMMY has learned how to finally Build a Team properly, organically, and with Purpose.
He then has maybe 1 slot I believe he could keep open if we wants or he can hunt down someone who truly wants to be part of this instead of "NEEDING" to find someone to be part of this.
Please Re-Sign Carter. Get your information. I understand that, but don't get hoodwinked. The Feedback will be the key and I hope that Tommy's "pitch" is good enough.
Tommy seems to have a legit plan in place, there's a good mix of older and younger talent and may arguably be his most skilled team under his tenure so far, of course I'm also including Carter returning, but even if he doesn't, we're still in pretty good position to succeed.
I may regret agreeing with Pert, so let's just say I am just to collect more "posts" so my Shoutbox color can change from "baby shit" brown to "monkey puke" brown.

This is definitely what I mean.
I didn't see it last year because Townsend didn't fit and I didn't think Awaka was going to play a much as he did due to thinking Carter was coming to Play.
I felt like losing KJ Lewis hurt a lot initially, but I see how the plan could really all come together with a Carter Re-Signing. KJ wouldn't need to be that guy having to come off the bench to do his defensive/energy thing. We would have 4 Guys for that in place, young and old who can provide that Offensive Element too.
I also was disturbed when Henri was gone basically as if he knew back in February it was a done deal. Weirdly quick how it came together, but Krivas, Awaka, Koa.. I think that will prove to be adequate. Carter, if he returns has wingspan I talk a lot about now.
I used to say Henri and Carter were bash brothers out there. They both played long and tall. Henri was tall, Carter was long..
Please Re-Sign Carter.
Make it all make sense.
And as I also said, maybe 1 slot can stay open. Never know who reclassifies or Internationals..

When I am the "Face", more people seem to agree or see my vision.
When I am the Heel... not so much.
I wonder if Tom is bringing back Perry HS superstar Dylan Anderson now that Koa Peat is on the team.
