If we have a full, healthy team, we’re good enough to reach the FF — even with all the recruiting whiffs.
The problem is we’re one injury away from disaster, and Pope evidently is refusing (or Mitch/JMI are refusing) to go get a backup for Lowe that is actually a true PG and can get into the lane. I have to say… if Pope doesn’t go get a backup and do it quick, it’s hard to take all of his “I understand the assignment” talk seriously. If you’re “here to win banners”, then go get the piece we need to assure we have a shot at the FF this year. Because if you don’t, and Lowe goes down again, the season is effectively over.
If you make a mistake, fine. But if you then have the opportunity to rectify that mistake and choose not to, welp… I can’t feel sorry for you at that point. You’ve made your bed.
