Our "worst case" includes something that would be pretty awesome:
Best Case: Perimeter length frustrates Oklahoma State sharpshooter Anderson. Interior size overwhelms the Cowboys. Paul Hewitt does solid bench work. And the Yellow Jackets continue their good vibe from the ACC tournament, riding it all the way through Ohio State and Georgetown to a regional final date with Kansas. The 2004 flashback can't quite continue that far, but the ride was fun. Hewitt and the fans decide they love each other after all. Favors and Lawal decide they love Hewitt enough to play one more year of college. And Mark Fox leaves Georgia for Oregon.
Worst Case: Guards dribble balls off their feet and knees, and Tech commits six turnovers on inbound passes as Oklahoma State blitzes it into the offseason. Favors gets six shots, Lawal five. Favors puts his name in the draft faster than you can say "Thaddeus Young." Hewitt's golden contract makes him unfireable, but he's also unhappy enough to jump to St. John's. Tech fans aren't sure how to act, and wind up stewing over the fact that Hewitt left before they could kick him out. Meanwhile, Mark Fox says he's not leaving Georgia.
Umm... I know how I'd act. Sad for 2 minutes that we lost in the first round and elated for an entire offseason (and more) that Hewitt would be gone.
