Man, how crazy would it be if Hutcherson actually gets drafted, and injuries were the only thing that kept him from seeing the floor for us as an AA-level player?

And before any of you freak out and start foaming at the mouth as you type out a reply to this post: it's just a silly hypothetical. Take a deep breath. We're just passing the time here as we wait for further roster developments.

Is there any possibility Grandy is back? I know we’re stacked at guard and that isn’t our issue, but I feel like his experience and ability to hit a three would be huge to help our younger guys develop into stars by March.

At this point, and based on how the portal has yet to give back, I would love it if Grandison came back. Could feel the same way about AH, but who knows based on him not playing. Yes, stacked at guards, but not 6'6" guards that the staff is looking for.

Granderson is not that great of a ball handler. Granted he is a glue type of guy, good passer and a great set shooter but not much at shot creation either. On the other hand, his defense is pretty good. More of a 3 to me. I hope he stays myself.

Two wings from day one--Goode and Melendez have to start. The 4 freshmen will get increased playing time as the season progresses. Clark has to start at the point from day one.

Ty Rodgers led the EYBL in BPM according to this guy. Worth noting that Rodgers had a pretty low usage rate at 16% but had a pretty insane offensive rebound rate of 18% which is incredible. Mainly played as a hustle big who could handle and pass at EYBL.

I dream of being a team that relentlessly crashes the glass like Houston did against us. Ty will be a sight for sore eyes.

It’ll be fascinating to see the 4/5 play of this team next year. I get the feeling regardless of win/loss outcome, we’re going to see more philosophies inline with what Underwood wants to run more consistently.
