Those first three weeks will be very very telling. Week 1: great team to tune up against. Solid but not great team that we should beat handily but will provide better competition than MVSU. Week 2: best defense we will face all year in the toughest environment of the year. If they produce here we’re good. Week 3: opponent loaded with athletes that used to have all sorts of stars. They should be better than last year and hungry for redemption. If we sputter against the AC than this game is where Freund needs to show that he can adjust and make it work with what he’s got.
If we can avg around 30ppg in the first 3 I’ll be happy and have my popcorn ready for the rest of the year. If we avg under 20ppg I’ll be looking/hoping it’s just the offense getting broken in. We need that side of the ball to take what the opponent gives it unlike the last few years, which was infuriating. My fingers are crossed, I’m confident in Danny.
