My hope is that if Hicks is going to stick around that he is prepared to work his rear end off to be a contributing member, moreso than our two big men on the bench this season are. If not, that scholarship is needed to add another inside player >6-8. Looking at who's coming back and who's gone, I can't see how we can add Simons even if he decided to come unless somebody doesn't return that is currently slated to.
