OVERALL
The Orange lose a lot (players) but like always they don’t rebuild they reload. Triche is the Orange most experienced player and will lead a young talented team. Fair might be the Orange most talented and will be asked to do a lot on the offensive end. Christmas is a sophomore who came in highly recruited and will have a chance to show what he got inside with Fab Melo moving on. Christmas gets some help from the talented big man Coleman who is a very big man but very athletic with good feet. Coleman’s impact on the team will go along way in the overall success.
