Not really, RW has never played in a Div 1 BBall game before. He will have a bit of a learning curve. Chris is ready to go....BIG TIME.
Well to say that Chris Allen will have a much larger impact than Royce is bold because Royce was a top recruit out of high school and there is a decent chance that he will be in the NBA after next season. Also, Chris Allen was decent at Michigan State but not a standout player. Allen also really hasn't improved that much in his three years at Michigan State.

"Impact" can mean different things to different people and its tough to measure the impact of guards vs. forwards. That said, barring any odd circumstances, Allen will lead the team in scoring next year. I don't think there is much doubt.

To say White has a decent chance of being in the NBA after next season is a hell of lot more bold than saying Allen will have a bigger impact......White's never played a minute of basketball in college. Thats 3 years removed from real game experience (high school).

Allen wasn't really a big time scorer (very good defensive player tho). His last two seasons he averaged 8 ppg. I really think that there are several players on next years team that could lead the team in scoring.

Agreed. I think people are going to be very pleased with Babb, and he could be our most consistent player next year....

Fred has said so many times that Allen will take over the position that DG had in running the offense through him. I don't think it is bold at all to think he will have the most impact on our team, I expect it.

Wherever I go, there I am.
I don't get the hate for Lucca. He would have been great in Fred's offense.

I hope I detect a fair degree of sarcasm.

If not, then let me agree he would have been great in Fred's offense, but the antithesis of great in Fred's defense. This, of course, assumes he took the time to get off his pampered Euro *** and play hard for a team rather than for himself.

So I gotta get this straight CA>RW=RW=NBA+CA=Sweet 16 It only makes sense
