My fixation with Collier and Prince stems from my hope that they can be instant contributors despite being freshmen. That's just a wish, of course, but a lot of other teams got that boost from frosh additions last season. We did not. After losing the heart of our offense with Brook and Ariel, Texas obviously needs other players to step up big time if we are to be an Elite Eight contender. Whether its from newcomers or from the current roster, we need extra juice. Otherwise it will be a disappointing season. Status quo performances won't do the trick. Last year I thought Patterson and Booth would be enough of an addition to take us to the Final Four, but that was wishful thinking. It would be immensely helpful if our now sophomore guards elevated to the level we expected of them when they arrived at Texas, or if one of the freshmen guards can play above her years.
