It is all data driven. It really shouldn't be that surprising that someone who averaged nearly 16 ppg in his 3rd year of CBB projects to average 17.4 ppg two seasons later.

I find it kind of sad that so many on here are scoffing at this very reasonable projection and acting like it's something completely unrealistic for him to do.

I'm very excited to have Demin and Catchings on the team, but I feel like too many in here are placing unreasonably high expectations on what those 2 true freshmen are likely to bring while simultaneously overlooking and/disregarding the impact that other players already on the roster very well could provide.
