Head coach Kevin O'Neill was asked about three one-time commitments, Derrick Williams, Solomon Hill and MoMo Jones, who all ended up in Arizona.

"They're all excellent players, and you feel the effects when you look at our roster and there's no sophomores and one junior," said O'Neill. "We lost basically two classes and 12 players in one year, so we feel fortunate to have been competitive last year, and we feel fortunate to be competitive this year."
