Can next year's team be better?

Certainly. In the first place, last year's team was not very good. But further, we have at least three players who are potentially major talents, if that potential blossoms. It is possible that we will have talent on the court next year similar to what we saw WKU have in years past. It has yet to happen: they were good, but will they be REALLY good? Who knows? But at least the potential is there, and that makes me eager for next season, just to see what happens.
