Who is the odd man out for playing time this year... Worster Ulis Hoiberg Essegian Gary Williams Griffiths Berke Morgan Meah Is Janowski even have a chance at minutes without an injury? I honestly don't know, because I think they all are needed this year. We also know Fred will not be playing 10 players all year

I just feel SF is meant for lean tall (6'6 to 6'8) dudes with guard like skills. You know like Griffith, Gary and Williams. And a PF is meant for dude like Morgan and Bolis. Guys that are tall and built with less guard skills and more back to the basket skills. SG is for dudes with a similar skill set as the SF, but could be 6'3 to 6'6 and a bit quicker. Nothing is written in stone, but when thinking of how I'd like to fill the roster that is the ideal sizes and skill sets I'd look for at a D1 school.

Essentially or Essegianly?

While I think any rational basketball fan would agree with you. Having a true point guard is a big deal. My counter to that statement... I think what made us so good last year was how different we were to the norm. Mast was our main distributor IMO, and Morgan is not going to be that. I am not going to downplay any of the guys we picked up, because I haven't seen them work together. I also am not going to say what we got is better than Wilcher and Lawrence either. With all that said, we could be very good or back to our old ways next year. Rollie is the key, and if he is a good distributor I think Williams and Gary could be pretty dominant next year. Oddly enough I think we may be better from behind the arc than our past season, but we won't have the same energy Keisei brought. Just like football (on the field)... show me on the court. The off season is for dreamers, I need actual proof before I say a group is an upgrade or not. I guess I wish we waited a little bit, and pushed harder for Milicic. I think part of the reason he committed to Tennessee is Morgan was already committed. He was definitely more the style I think Fred likes than Morgan. Obviously Fred took Morgan and sees something I do not, and I am going hold my hopes on that.

Essegian at the 4... I really hope we never have to see that lineup

I see a lot of people with Essegian as the 3... I do not see him playing the 3 spot at all. He is definitely a 2 through and through IMO Starters Listed First () - minutes at that position 1 - Rollie(25)/Ulis(15)/Williams(Only gets minutes if there is foul trouble) 2 - Essegian(25)/Hoiberg(15)/Janowski(Redshirt or gets Hoibergs minutes) 3 - Williams(30)/Griffith(5)/Gary(5) 4 - Gary(30)/Griffith(10)/Morgan(Only gets minutes if there is foul trouble) 5 - Meah(20)/Morgan(20)

No Mast I see? Interesting

Worster is good at defense? I honestly did not know that.

Do we know thar? Blaise was injured the whole time he was here. So is he going to be a better inspirational cheerer of the team?

Honestly we need a rim protector, but he definitely was not the first man on the list. Minimal offensive threat make him the definition of a role player

Looks like we landed plan D

Meh

Can someone tell me why he didn't play this year after such a good freshman season?
