Now that the season is over, it is time to look ahead. I know that a number of stars will leave the college hardwood and head for the green being offered by the NBA.
Yes, but it would be nice to dream. If everyone with eligibility came back, we would have amazing talent on our All-Solid Gold teams. This list will clearly change as a number of members will leave early for the pros.
For now, here are my top five All-Solid Gold teams as I sit here dreaming of what next year could be if everyone stayed and graced us with their extraordinary presence.
