I'd be happy to see next year's scholarship players listed.
Since no one had answered, here's my best stab at it. 10 (?) scholarship players:
Schollies:
Tristan Clark, F, soph
Tyson Jolly, G, soph
Mario Kegler, G, junior, transfer
Jake Lindsey, G, senior
King McClure, G, senior
Mark Vital, F, soph
Devonte Bandoo, G, soph(?), transfer
Matthew Mayer, F, frosh
Flo Thamba, C, frosh
Darius Allen, G, frosh
Non-schollies
Jonathan Davis, F, senior
Freddie Gillespie, F, senior
We will likely be one of the smallest/shortest teams in all of college bball, bringing us back to the Aaron Bruce/Henry Dugat/Curtis Jerrells days, which, of course, has its advantages and disadvantages. One of the biggest advantages is when you can play 8 guards you can run the other team up and down the court all day and hopefully tire out the other team's slow big men. But you gotta score. "In guards we trust."
Anybody have any input on what the lineup/minutes distribution may look like?
With the slight decline in recruiting (esp big men), one has to wonder if our football scandal had anything to do with steering some recruits away. Mayer is a heck of a player though and he will definitely be worth his weight in gold. Green and gold, that is.
