I think he made many of the same points I made last week. I didn't get to read his article on 247 as I don't have a subscription, but my guess is it's pretty close to what he said in the pod.

The team finished strong at the end of the year. I was encouraged by how Booker, Williams, and Freeny finished the year. I think we forget, every one of those guys was a major recruit.
