Here's hoping that next year for the first time in a long time we're more than the sum of our parts. I think the last time that happened was probably 04-05, and our parts back then were A/A+ to begin with.
Can pencil in Frazier/Lucas, JCL, Kipper, Black, Tilmon/Finke or whoever in, but unless they know how to play well together, it doesn't mean much.
I'd say the 2008, tied-for-second-in-the-B1G team was greater than the sum of its parts.
