I was very leery of the game last year and my fears showed true.
If Loveridge can shake off his streakiness and not shoot the U out of some games this year then they are going to be tough to beat. Jakob Poeltl also gives them two legit 7 footers in the middle. Much credit to Larry Krystkowiak. He is a very good coach. It will be interesting to see if is a lifer at the U or if he wants to move on to a bigger job. If they can get to the sweet 16 this year, his resume would look very very impressive.
