Actually....I have some hope for basketball this year.  
I watched a lot of them play this summer and came away impressed; and that's not normally me.
I was told that Hudson would be McFall like.  That statement is an injustice to Joe.  The dude can create his own shot, is a good athlete and has great court sense.  He was a steal for the Pokes.  I question the JC guards ability to get a shot off at this level.  Amath would be the wild card there if he can actually command a double team at times and create cleaner looks for those guys.  I didn't get a chance to see Gibson play but have heard mixed reviews.
Without a doubt though......Nate Dixon is the biggest newcomer to the program.  He'll help.
At worst he'd be a nice transition to bring Shyatt back here for next year as they're friends.  Plus he's on a couple of nice prospects from Louisiana for next year.
Peace.
