UA looks like this, correct me if I'm wrong.
Tarc, Ristic, Comanche
Anderson, Tollefsen
Smith, Pitts
York, Trier, Allen
PJC,Allen, Simon
That's 12 kids. Tarc, Anderson. Tollefsen and York are proven talents that have started at the D1 level although York has traditionally played better off the bench. So you have 3 kids who have done well as starters, only Anderson as a primary option.
We both know if Miller plays close to 12 kids this year it's because he's trying to find the right mix, like most coaches he doesn't want to play more than 8.
My guess is your core group will wind up being Tarc, Anderson, York, PJC, Trier, Tollefsen, Allen and then probably Pitts.
USA Today has you 12th and Cal 17th. For me the question is who's the go to guy, Anderson, Allen and Trier look like the best bets on that. And I expect a dropoff on defense, you lost a bunch of really good defenders.
