RV2, thoughts on UK ending up with this roster? Dream close-out with Davis, Bowden, Munford and Wright, with an attrition of five in the off-season... Been following UK for forty years, and the roster closely for thirty-five, and this would be maybe the most well-balanced and put-together roster I remember in that time period... Very solid array that could go from a floor of 6-6 to a high end of 9-3...
