 | PENN ST: Last season: 16-16, 7-11
Nickname: Nittany Lions
Coach: Patrick Chambers
Conference: Big Ten
Who's gone: F Brandon Taylor, F Donovon Jack, G Devin Foster, C Jordan Dickerson
Who's back: G Shep Garner. Junior led team in scoring in 11 games including five of final six; F Payton Banks; Junior saw increase in scoring (+7.7 points per game) with added playing time; G Josh Reaves. Team went 1-5 without the stingy sophomore in the lineup.
Who's new: G Tony Carr. Freshman is top recruit in the state and joins high school teammates and fellow Top 10 prospects G Nazeer Bostick and F Lamar Stevens to form Penn State's most vaunted recruiting class ever.
The Skinny: With back-to-back strong recruiting classes now in the program, the Nittany Lions have started to piece things together on the court. They nearly upset No. 4 Maryland on the road early and beat ranked Indiana and Iowa teams over the final five weeks of last season. Chambers believes speed to be his team's best attribute, but the young Nittany Lions will be challenged to establish a physical presence in a rugged Big Ten. | | PITTSBURGH: Last season: 21-12, lost to Wisconsin in 2nd round of NCAA Tournament.
Nickname: Panthers.
Coach: Kevin Stallings.
Conference: Atlantic Coast.
Who's gone: G James Robinson, G Sterling Smith, F Alonzo Nelson-Ododa.
Who's back: F Jamel Artis. Senior forward will work as a point forward at time in Stallings' new offense; F Michael Young. Senior forward has been model of consistency during his career. Will be given freedom to expand his offensive game beyond the back-to-the-basket basics that carried him to 15.7 points, 6.8 rebounds per game last season. F Cameron Johnson, has the length (6-foot-8) to be effective on both ends but needs to get stronger to avoid getting banged around.
Who's new: Stallings. The longtime Vanderbilt
Coach left the Commodores after 17 years to replace Jamie Dixon, who bolted after a largely successful run with the Panthers to
Coach at TCU, his alma mater. G Justice Kithcart. Freshman stuck with his commitment after Jamie Dixon left for TCU and gives the Panthers someone who can push the pace. C Rozelle Nix. Big fella (6-foot-11, 300 pounds) redshirted last year but if the Panthers want Young to play away from the basket, having Nix provide productive minutes in the middle would help.
The Skinny: Stallings and athletic director Scott Barnes both said the deciding factor on the hire was their shared belief Pitt has the tools to make it to the Final Four. While the Panthers are nowhere near that level, they should be competitive in the ACC if Young and Artis stay healthy and the guards make enough shots. |
