This team has shown that it can compete with some of the best teams the country has to offer. See games against MSU and Louisville. My question to everyone is:
What is/are the missing link(s) that you believe would make this team a bona fide Big 10 championship/final four contender?
For me, I see two needs:
(1) a Bobby Jackson-f-you-I'm-gonna-take-over-this-game-so-kiss-my-a$$ type player; and
(2) a rebounding monster (ala Courtney James/Richard Coffee).
The good news is that White (or maybe even Rodney Williams) and Mbakwe might fill both roles as soon as next year (fingers crossed!). Plus, Iverson-Sampson-Devoe will have another year's development and experience.
