I have to imagine this means they’re expecting Mack to be gone. I don’t see these two as guys who can be on the court at the same time. 
 

That being said, we’re going to be severely limited at the guard spot, especially with Burke’s status up in the air.

Should be a capable addition.

The limited at guard spot

The only two on that list who I consider a guard are King and Webster. Neither are here yet and one we don’t know the eligibility on. However, maybe I would have been more accurate if I said, “were severely missing quick, slashing, ball-screen manipulating guards.”
 

-Banton, sure, I get it. But completely unproven.

-Allen, not a guard in my opinion. Literally playing the 5-ish spot at WNCC, and will play a 3-4-5 like Kevin Cross (but waaaaaay better, don’t get me twisted now). Also, high risk player here. 

-Thor, this board hasn’t seemed to be in agreement with me on this, but he’s not very good. He gave a valiant effort on the worst team in Nebraska basketball history, and I applaud him for that.

Abdelmassih:  Okay Fred, here's this player from WIU named Kobe ---

Hoiberg: Take him!

Abdelmassih:  Uh, okay...Do you want to know his last name?

Hoiberg:  Nope.  

 

I kid of course

Looks like someone is going to have to pull all of those arrows down out of the rafters at PBA.

Stevenson is also more than capable of playing the guard position.

Not as a primary ball handler or ball screen manipulator.

If there isn't a Kobe beef slider option on the PBA concession menu next year I'm gonna write a strongly worded letter.

We lost Cam Mack and Dachon Burke.

We gained Kobe Webster, Kobe King, Dalano Banton and Teddy Allen.

 

I wouldn't say we are severely limited at the guard spot at all. And I think you are under-estimating Teddy Allen's skill-set as well. Also i might add Webster might not be as quick or as skilled as Mack, but if he is 10x the person/teammate mack was, we'll be better off. 

 

Also, Fred's second year team at Iowa State had Royce White as its primary "guard" and that went alright (23-11, NCAA Second Round). Iowa State's starting lineup in 2011-12 was 6-3, 6, 3, 6-5, 6-6, 6-8.

 

Right now our starting lineup for next year is probably 6-0 Webster, 6-4 King, 6-5 Allen, 6-8 Banton, 6-9 Ouedraogo. 

 

I was worried about our guards before. But adding a senior grand transfer/proven DI scorer/proven good teammate, I'm not worried about it now. We need an athletic big man more than another guard.

Paging Adama Sanogo......... You got next.

Thor is not an All American type no, but I will take him as a role guy.  Agree if he is starting next year, we will struggle.

[colhusker]

Oh and welcome Mr Webster, I like the get.

[Husker Hoops Penitent]

We need two more bigs who are athletic. I hope for H.S. Center Sanogo and someone else- either Clemence or a high-quality grad. transfer. It looks like Whitt will be in the class w/ Sallis. Wouldn't it be great to get those two!

[Handy Johnson]

This ends any speculation regarding Mack,   I would expect him to step in & start but we’ll see. Also, future Husker Hunter Sallis will be playing on the Television tonight if you wanna tune in... GBR!
