Potential is a dangerous word.

Especially when trying to handicap the New Mexico State men's basketball team.

As the first day of practice opens Friday across the nation, the Aggies return the Western Athletic Conference's top scorer (Jahmar Young), rebounder (Wendell McKines) and 3-point shooter (Gordo Castillo). The Aggies return all five starters from a team that finished 12-4 in WAC play, led the league in scoring (76.3 points per game) and peaked in time for a run to the WAC tournament semifinals as a No. 5 seed.

Now, third-year coach Marvin Menzies has to find a way to put all the pieces together.

While the talent is certainly there, the question marks can't be ignored...
