West coast swagga in the BIG EAST?

[mwingate]

Clearly Lavin is gearing up for an uptempo game with long and lanky players. How do you think that style will hold up in the ruff tuff BIG EAST?

In the end, he is going to have to sign some beef up front to contend with the physicalness of Big East post play. I've read that he is going hard after Pelle out of Cali at center, and he would fit an uptempo game. But at the end of the day, he will have to sign some muscle as well.

RIght now, I am more concerned about the backcourt. They need a top tier PG to run the show and they need some outside shooting as well. Getting Cook and Harrison would be fantastic!

Any word on who else is on the radar?

Lavin's probably gonna beef it up with some JUCO players to balance out the 2011-12 young bucks.
