Countdown to Tipoff: Young Big Men Need To Step Up

Coming into this year everyone knows that Tech is light on established talent. This offseason saw Tech lose it’s best three players in Josh Okogie, Ben Lammers, and Tadric Jackson. Now Tech is looking at a significant down year unless this team can find some surprises (like when Lammers and Okogie came out of nowhere in 2016-17 to surprise the ACC).

Despite a lack of returning production, the backcourt looks like it could be alright. Jose Alvarado performed admirably as a freshman leading Tech at the point last year before his arm injury. If he gets healthy he should take up where he left off.
