I agree with all that everyone said, but the major reason that this team is where it is is because Max and MOS are not on this team right now.

Can you name 2 other player that we could have lost that would have been worse. We could have absorbed a loss of Todd and Han much better, or even Bell and MVS.... because we had depth and experienced replacements. Just like when we lost Gai and Todd 2 years ago, we replaced them with a former starter in Kudjo and Thompson sliding over.

MOS and Max both played a position that we were weak at to begin with. I just see us much better in a lot of aspects with MOS/Max/Mamadou than with Carter/Middleton/Reedal. How many wins difference would the first trio give us over the second trio...... quite a bit. I would say its a differnce between a 15 win team and 5 win team.

So the secondary blame is that we had no depth up front from not recruiting a big man in 25 months to keep us competative during this time.

That is no excuse for the St Francis and Loyola losses, but is surely explains the others.
