"[T]he only major loss is 6-foot-6 forward Brian Conklin, the team's leading scorer. But everyone else of note -- point guard Kwamain Mitchell, off-guards Mike McCall and Jordair Jett, swingman Dwayne Evans, forward Cody Ellis -- is back. Meanwhile, 6-11 forward Rob Loe looks capable of stepping into a bigger role in the frontcourt in his junior season."Brennan Eamonn Best-case/worst-case scenarios http://espn.go.com/ncb/notebook/_/page/summershootaround120727/atlantic-10 https://web.archive.org/web/20120731182346/http://espn.go.com/ncb/notebook/_/page/summershootaround120727/atlantic-10 dead July 31, 2012 ESPN.com ESPN Internet Ventures 30 July 2012 Departures Name Number Pos.
