Yeah, it is the first time in a long time I felt this much uncertainty about what the Titan team was capable of. Even over the past few years we had enough returning talent to forecast some best case scenarios for individual players. This year, outside of Blackshear and McFolley, it is hard to know what to expect.
I would have loved to see what Davis could do with a roster that included Allen, Chatman, JJ Jr., Ballantyne, T. Jones, I. Jones, Josh, Gerald, etc. But this year is really going to test his coaching ability. Maybe he'll pleasantly surprise and surpass expectations, ala' Tubby Smith. :-) Hopefully, we'll at least see consistent effort and coachability out of the team, and build on that going forward.

Blue Ribbon is out:
1. Wright State 2. Northern Kentucky 3. UIC 4. Green Bay 5. IUPUI 6. Cleveland State 7. Youngstown State 8. Oakland 9. Milwaukee 10. Detroit
"The Titans took their time finding a replacement but landed Mike Davis from Texas Southern. Davis produced NCAA tournament teams at Indiana and UAB then guided Texas Southern to consecutive appearances in 2017-18. He inherits a massive rebuilding job at Detroit."
BR has Harrison Curry sitting this year. And here's a new one:

Detroit 10 YSU. The weirdest thing about Street and Smith's preview this year is that the version they are selling in Michigan has a Wisconsin player featured prominently on the cover, and tiny pictures of Cassius Winston and Charles Mathews tucked away in the corner. Really? Michigan State won the Big Ten last season. Michigan made the Final Four. The magazine picks the Spartans and Wolverines to finish 1 and 2 in the conference. So why have a Badger on the cover of the Michigan version of the magazine? Did they actually ship us the Milwaukee version??

More importantly, how did Blue Ribbon scoop Scout? :-)

All I'd need to do is get the Commissioner to post his previews earlier and copy them - not only are they that good, but they're probably even better

You could be the HL's Blue Ribbon guy. Heck of a plot twist. The Commissioner's previews stand up to anyone's.

I note that they think that Sandy Cohen is gone from Green Bay. He's not, and he's their best player.
