The biggest pieces we lost to the draft on D
were on the sidelines last year about as often as they were available. Might as well include Burnham too. Not much of an adjustment to play without.
We gave up 17.6 ppg in 2025. Anything above 14 this fall should be considered a disappointment IMO. That's how loaded for bear we are, even in garbage time.
