I agree paloalto.  IMO, like yours, we are ranked too high and should be closer to 10-15 range preseason which would could improve upon as we develop.  I also agree we might start slow with at least 3 first time starters (perhaps more if don't have 3 6-rotation players, but use a defensive specialist or two now they we have some).  I hope and expect to be a much better team in November as the starting line-up settles and everyone gets experience working together.

Miner mentioned, in the brief time she chatted with my table at the BBQ, that feels incredibly comfortable setting to Andrew (the new starting MB) and already was comfortable with the other 3 new pins already since they've practiced together for a year.  I'm counting on us jelling quicker than many believe.  I feel we again can be a final four level team.
