Great stuff from Watkins here. I share the feelings on the importance of Pierce. With Ant/Mark/Mack, we’re going to aggressive and probably consistently good. But Pierce is the X factor. He just has completely different skills. If he doesn’t take that step, then you know Dennis is going to turn to Crews, which is high floor, low ceiling. But if Pierce is the good Pierce from last year all season long, the team basically has no ceiling. We know that because they beat the national champs on their floor. Really rooting for Trent. He’s the secret sauce.
