The same leaders are back. Vocally and performance wise. I think the whole group got flowers tossed at them for too long and then, when smacked in the mouth, didn't handle it well at all. Much different than the adversity that forged last years group.

#1 Ranking. The entire starting 5 on the Wade Trophy and Wooden Watch Lists etc. And better, on paper, than last March. Dancing With The Stars. ESPY Awards. A behind the scenes documentary. Signing Events. Player serving as grand marshal of a fall festival in Evansville. Cubs game. A trophy tour lasting from May 31 to August 23 and comprising 12 events. Heady stuff that's derailed professional teams trying to repeat.

Well. They have adversity now and an entire season still to play. We'll see.
