First and foremost, let me express that the findings in regards to Reggie and his past actions are far greater than a game of basketball. I sincerely hope that the victims are able to cope with any struggles they've endured as a result and that they are able to find the strength to press forward as justice is served to Reggie. I also hope that this serves as a wake-up call to Reggie by making him re-evaluate who he wants to be as a person and hopefully he can make drastic changes to how he treats women.
That being said, this thread is meant to discuss strictly basketball implications of the team going forward as it does have a huge impact on the team we all root for.
Some questions to start some dialogue...
1) How are Reggie's minutes going to be divided now and what will the lineup look like? Is it just going to be as simple as Bakary/Gaston splitting minutes or could we see extremely small lineups at times with Murph and Fitzgerald in the frontcourt?
2) Is this still an NCAA Tournament team / do ya'll even see them having a square opportunity to even get there now?
3) Can the hardship and turmoil potentially benefit the program in any way for next year? (i.e. underclassmen stepping up to the plate and performing at a higher level because of the added responsibility?) After this season, next season is going to feel like a relief with the additions of Oturu, Curry, and Stockman back into the frontcourt.
