Their roster right now is maybe worse than what Fran inherited. As of this day you could argue they have maybe the worst roster in the conference. Though NW is pretty close to them. They are losing 4 seniors who all started at one point during the season and played a ton of minutes. They already have one guy in starting guard Thomas Allen transferring to NC St and another Akenten who was their 6th man was suspend from the program towards the end of the year not on the roster right now was one of many gone who saw significant minutes last year.
On top of it Roby entered his name into the draft yesterday but not hiring an agent so still a chance he could come back. If Roby left along with the suspended player that would mean their top 8 scorers from last year would all be gone from a poor squad as is. If he does return then their 2nd leading returning scorer would be walk on Johnny Trueblood who avg 2.2 pts last year... Even if Roby stayed they have zero proven front court players. They'd need a lot more than 1 or 2 grad transfers to compete for a tourney spot next year let alone to finish in the top 10 of the conference.
The roster Fred inherited at ISU had 3 guys on scholarship. He had them dancing in year 2.
Granted, this will be more challenging solely because pretty much every program is involved in the transfer market now.
