re: Tyrell Ward confirms he's coming back next season.

This is key. Retaining the kids that we recruited and keeping them for 3-4 years. You consistently get 2-3 good high school kids a year and keep them in the program and they develop then year over year you can have a bigger and bigger core to where you only need a couple good transfer options to fill key roles whether as a starter or as a bench guy that contributes a lot with solid minutes. Reed had flashes this year too. Sometimes it takes big guys longer to develop and really get it because they aren’t used to playing against guys their size or bigger on a regular basis except in AAU but often times that can be like an NBA All-star game with little defense and a ton of one on one play showcasing what they got and really doesn’t develop them. Wish Fountain would pick up offensively. It seems like not this year but last year he went through some stretches where he would get the ball up top and take his guy off the dribble and finish. Want to say he had several games where he started scoring a good bit but then didn’t see that anymore.
