I appreciate C.Williams comments about the need for a dose of luck in addition to talent to get to the final four. This is true. A great team is always going to lose some games. I also appreciate that every year informed ISU fans are holding their breath to see how each new team will gel, especially considering all the transfers; again there's the thought that we need to ride the luck wave. News flash (not): this is part of Hoiberg's genius, right? But now we can say with confidence because of the last 5 years that CFH is such a powerful leader that transfers and everyone else are going to buy in to the system, putting egos aside. They are going to develop that intangible chemistry and play as a team. Is there any doubt? I think not... Does that mean that we are guaranteed to go 14-0 preseason? Of course not. But when it comes to that all-important element of team chemistry, I'm not holding my breath. We will get there. We will most likely be at our best for the Big 12 Tourney and beyond.
