So, about that Mahan signing, I think he's a pretty critical piece. I've watched highlights a few different times now, and I get more excited about the pickup each time. That quick, smooth release is going to translate. And while he isn't a "plus" SEC athlete, he's enough of an athlete that coaching and want-to can keep him from being a significant defensive liability, and keep his shooting on the floor.
He's obviously remade his game and/or his body in relatively short order, because he looks like a legit high D-1 contributor, so it's pretty crazy that he was an afterthought not too long ago.
