Our flexibility last year covered 2-5 with our eight man rotation with Z for the 4-5, Ben 3-4, and Jake at the 2-3. We had only KB and KW for the 1-2. With KB hurt we had no replacement for KW at the 1. Brandon Lee was not a 1 and Petrovic did not fit our system. Think our weakness this year is...

The only depth that matters in my opinion is the replacement of a player that is injured and out for a sustained period. For Tomi-Z, for Dre-Jake, for QC- Jake, for Vaaks-Morillo, for Mirk-Z. All of these would hurt and strategies would be affected but none to the extent of MSU losing Fears...

I saw an article saying Landon Davis was the next best athlete on the team after QC. (Before Williams commitment). I haven’t seen any video on him and he is generally left out of any playing time conversation. Was this reporter on the spiked orangeade or has he been ignored due to his ranking...

As long as only 5 guys play that depth is academic and belongs in the 9th man discussion. More chance to create dissension tha be an advantage. Results will be determined by first eight not 9 and 10.

Different topic but with Dre, Coleman, and Williams we have some excellent speed and athleticism. Curios to see if Williams is good enough to see minutes and if that would create a more fast break offense. Bringing in Z and Williams off the bench could create a spark with the offense speeding...

Possibles: Lead guard- Brown/ Morillo Shooting guard- Brown/Williams Wing- Zens/Williams Big-Mirk/Davis Need at least on big from the portal plus a high recruit but we have possibilities at the other positions. How good TBD?

We are going to need rebounding more than scoring. Love this stat line.

Although neither Tomi or Mirk are fast they would both be effective at starting the fast break as good rebounders and passers. Dre would be the best we’ve had since TSJ in speed and finishing. I expect us to look more like that team with Vaaks looking like Domask at times. However can’t picture...

And we did get the draw.

Seems to be a great advantage if you can play 7-8 at a time. Not so much if 5 on the floor with an 8 man rotation.

Ty Rodgers who can shoot?

Did some stat comparison with and without KB, KW and BH. Not sure this is accepted method but calculated efficiency as follows: Total points/(attempted shots+ turnovers - offensive rebounds) Total. 1.46. Minus the 3. 1.48 Three only 1.42 Three represents 39.8% minutes, and 40.5% points As the...

Think more like Ayo frosh 13.8 ppg, 4 rpg, 3.2 assists Also wonder with Dre and QC if fast break points will rise. Need Vaaks rebounding to improve as well as defense.

If I were the defensive coach I would tell the offensive coach to get by with four shooters because I need a rim protector. I.e. enter 2027 Uvwo with a 7’ 6”” wingspan and quick feet.

Think any of the starters could be the leading scorer in any particular game. If Tomi is healthy and improves his post game he will be difficult to stop. If a team does a Purdue defense on Vaaks he will light it up. Opposing teams will pick on the current high scorer and another will pick up the...
