OVERALL

The Golden Eagles will have to deal with the lost of Big East player of the year Jae Crowder, but back to back top recruits in Blue and Mayo look to step up in new leadership roles. Add the top 100 recruit Taylor and transfer Lockett, who was Arizona St. leading scorer last season, and the Golden Eagles should be primed for another big season in the Big East. The continued improvement of Gardner inside will go along way in MU run at a conference championship.
