My expectations took a hit with Tank Hemphill's injury, but have rebounded a bit with Patterson's improved play. I also think Chevalier can help this team with more playing time. I would agree with the Chevalier potentially helping this team win some games. He has a shooting guard like stroke for a kid 6'8 and you can see him starting to get a better feel on the court. The depth of the team up front due to injuries is a concern but I am hopeful a tough as nails non conference schedule has thickened this team's skin enough to be a tough out every time they step out onto the floor. Coach Izzo does this with Michigan St every season by loading up a tough non conference schedule to get his team ready for conference play and March. Tomorrow we will see if the team is ready for the challenge, I am hopeful they will be. Wright St and No. Ky on the road is as difficult as it gets coming out of the gate for anyone in this conference but they are also maybe the 6th and 7th best team the Phoenix have seen this season. Time to lace em up and get after it.
