The holdovers:
Dan Skillings, G/F, Simas Lukosius, G/F, Rayvon Griffith, G/F, Day Day Thomas, G, Jizzle James, G, Aziz Bandaogo, C (has name in NBA Draft currently), CJ Fredrick, G and Josh Reed, F
The core of Skillings, Lukosius, Thomas, James and Bandaogo is enough for “The Cats” to be Top 25 next season. Everyone will have more comfort in the system and should take a major leap. The only person who is in limbo on this list is Fredrick he hasn’t announced his return like the others that are coming back. The Bearcats currently have one spot open and with how the roster is constructed I could see them going for a big that can play the 4 and 5. Most are banking on Bandaogo’s return, if he does stay in the draft “The Cats” will have to address that need asap.
Once the final slot has been filled we will readdress the roster to see their strengths and weaknesses heading into the summer.
