We had 3 players transfer last year as well as Steven Adams going pro when we assumed he would stay and develop.

Add that to Khem Birch's transfer the year before (he isn't a superstar but we sure could have used him and planned to have him) and basically our roster this year was a total rebuild that we didn't plan ahead for.

Pitt isn't Kentucky, we can't handle a loss of 4 or 5 players and just replace them. We started the season way better than we should have, but even making the 2nd round of the tournament was a successful season for this team, just seems like it wasn't because we started so well and people got expectations that weren't fair for the team.

We'll get better
