So, you know, it's throwing darts now, but they've got enough talent.

They've got athletic guards.

They've got two really good shooters.

They've got a big man that they –

you know, can play through some and, you know, is one of the better bigs in the country.

And then they got a bench that, again, I think is solid.

And as long as they buy into their role, chemistry is going to be huge.

It was two years ago for Mark Pope's team.

And last year, not quite as good.

And I think, again, they gave themselves a chance here.

Yeah, the hardest part with predicting anything in college basketball this year with the amount of turnover that you see on these rosters is it's not just will the pieces come together?

Do the pieces fit?

Were you able to recruit players that can actually understand new concepts and new systems and new terminology?

How are they going to acclimate for the foreign guys to playing in the United States in a different style of basketball or a different brand of basketball?

But then you also got just like the personality factor.

Do these guys actually get along?

Do they actually like each other?

Will they be able to fit together in a locker room?

Will there be a culture that gets developed?

Because when you have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven new faces coming into a program like Kentucky has this year, it's not a guarantee.
