Consistency, consistency, consistency. That seems to be the key for me.

Nice to see SOMEONE who thinks this season's Griffs might just be a challenge in the MAAC. Of course, Ed Cooley saw our kids' best effort of last season in our 28 pt win at Koessler.
The key is to develop some consistent outside shooters to take pressure off our big men inside and Frankie at the point. If Brett Chance can develop, fine, but that's a long shot for next season. Willie is wildly inconsistent, and Frazier needs heavy remedial work on his outside shot.
We need our coaches to do some hard work with these kids on their technique, just as Beilein did with Barley, Thompson etc. Kids CAN learn to shoot.

Easy to understand why the Griffs can be looked upon as a sleeper this season. Simmons, Logan, and Frazier are now sophomores. They are a little bigger, stronger, experienced and most importantly relaxed and fans will notice this immediately. If these guys can turn it up a notch, without question, CC will be heard from in the MAAC. I also think Hassel will surprise this year. Remember for much of last season he was playing ill.It's going to be exciting and fun this year. Go Griffs!!!

A true definition of a recruit is the leap they make from their Frosh to Sophmore year. Look at the success that Siena & Niagara have enjoyed by having their players make these jumps.
