I see a real opportunity here. All the past Nova teams have had multiple NBA players. This team does not. In fact, Paschall is a projected 2nd rounder and Booth is not in the conversation. IMO Paul and Naji are better prospects than anything they have. I am predicting a upset.

While I agree we have an opportunity here and I think we keep it close, they still have more nba potential on their team.
Quinerly was a McDonald's all american and top 30 recruit.
Swider and Samuel are top 50 recruits and very long.
I think the real difference between this years nova team and ones in the recent past, is that the best talent is very young and still trying to figure it out...much like paul last year and naji this year. Their talent is still better than what x puts on the floor.

Pascall is a beast. I wonder how he and Jones and Hankins will play ? Could be some fireworks. Paschall and Scruggs got into it at Cintas last year. Actually Scruggs walked away as though he was scared to death of Paschall.

(hope that's not behind a paywall)...he went up late, and I was already up there.

Cole Swider broke his hand... not that it’s a huge deal but since he almost came to X it’s a small storyline.
