You bring up the negatives and question marks but ignore the positives:
* Massive improvement in point guard play, arguably the most important position on the floor;
* Much more scoring from the backcourt, a major weakness last season;
* More scoring from Kobe Johnson's position, whatever than was;
* More size to play center which frees up Bilodeau from guarding the opponent centers. Jamerson had a higher rate of rebounding than Mara.
* Rather than less depth, a tighter rotation which may be better for continuity than having ten players averaging double figure minutes. Dent averaged 35 minutes a game which would alleviate the need for last season's revolving door backcourt.
* The only major question mark is Jamar Brown. The Summit conference has had a few very successful transfers recently: Max Abmas (ORU to Texas), Zeke Mayo (SDST to Kansas), Baylor Scheierman (SDST to Creighton) and Grant Nelson (NDST to Alabama).
