Iowa Point Guards

If Williams was a freshman this year I would agree. Judging by the way he played at the end of last year, I would say it's close to a push. Maybe slight advantage Mike. What do you think about the comparison other than that? I think the two teams are very comparable.

I think a consensus top 100 recruit is more than just a slight advantage over someone who barely played and never played the PG position. Otherwise it looks comparable but a less experienced team. Not sure why you think this bench has a higher ceiling though
 
I'm not sure what this means
Fran has said Cook is the most talented player he's ever had, yet Woody was ranked similarly or even higher? Baer was a walk on yet I've read that Fran feels he's too talented to keep out of the starting 5? Yet on other teams, with other coaches, these guys might have different fates. Rankings mean you're talented at something. A coach has to figure out how to use it.

I'm using hindsight for Gesell's freshman team because it has already played out. His high school ranking is irrelevant.
 
I will be surprised if many people comment on how much the team is "missing" the contributions of Sapp, MG or Woody this season.
