^ That's totally fair and you're right, we need more size with Cohen gone. I have 100% faith that Frank will get one or two quality bigs in this program next year, whether that's Mason, Damjanac (sp?), and a transfer or some other combination.

No rim protection, mediocre rebounding, limited 3 point shooting and we will get killed by any team that has a dominant center. We need a solid big to replace Josh. I might be wrong, but we all have different views on how to build a team.
I think we could benefit from more rim protection and 3pt shooting, and if it was my call I'd make those two areas a priority to improve... but swapping out Cohen & Keon from the starting 5 and replacing them with DHS and Curry probably gives you better rim protection, better 3pt shooting, and draws even on rebounding.
