Kamari Williams looked good at the end of the year and could see more playing time. 5 open scholarships for next year and could be 6 if Karnik plays and we only have two current offers out that could actually be commits, the two local kids that play for Langford and JVB AAU team. Most teams have 20+ offers out to players at this time. I get it that its tough with no AAU to recruit but Jimmy is gonna have to pretend like he’ll be here next year again.

I say this every year, but that lineup can’t score or shoot. Agreed with TWB that freshman Langford will start and play a ton.

I vote for starting all four sophmores and young Langford.
if we are gonna suck, we might as well suck while we build on something for 2-3 years from now and maybe even for a period after that

So you would bring in four grad transfers, along with your best returning player, and bench them all? That doesn't make any sense.

Tabbs/Heath/Mitchell are starting. I tend to agree with the OP - Scott and Adams start to begin the season, and time will tell if Felder or one of the Langford brothers replaces them.

Also note, we aren't going to suck or at least suck as much as we have the past few years - this is the most competitive team Jimmy Mac has had (minus the Hawkins year, undone by injury).

JC doesn't have time to suck. He needs to show Kraft something.

Can you explain your optimism on this team? They'll win between 3-7 ACC games as constructed unless the freshman are amazing or you get a huge jump from Felder & Kamari.

There's a reason these transfers played in the NEC (or whatever conference Southern Utah plays in).

Reason for optimism: Tabbs/Heath is a really good backcourt, Mitchell is one of the best defenders in the ACC, and they have a ton of depth.

Also, just to put things into perspective - Christian's best ACC record is 7-11 in 2017-18, so his "best team" doesn't mean I think they're making the tourney (which is the only thing that'll save his job). My point was that he's not tanking with his job on the line. As another poster noted, JC doesn't have time to suck.

Prediction: I think 8-10 ACC wins and the NIT (and Christian gets canned).

Tabbs is a total wild card. Again, expecting him to come back full tilt after 20+ months off and 2 knee surgeries just isn’t realistic.

I also don’t think the Patriot League Allstars count as depth. I refer you back to Tava and Jeffers.

2 completely different kinds of players though. Scott is smaller, plays outside some and can shoot the 3. I think Adams would be more like Jeffers in terms of skillset.

Yikes. Invoking the names of Tava and Jeffers just brought back some bad memories.

That was a BAD team:

I'll agree that there is no reason to think that Adams and Scott will be any better than Tava and Jeffers - guess we'll wait and see.

My guess would be Scott goes for something like 8/4/2 per. He can shoot a little and can probably play both 3/4 so I gave him more. Adams probably will get decent minutes if Karnik is out and go for 6/6. We gotta find a way to keep Felder happy enough to not transfer out. Gonna need bodies up front for next year also.

I can solve your Felder problem. He, Mitchell and Scott should be the frontcourt. If not, then the frosh should be the only one that starts over him and he should be first off the bench.

No. I said he shouldn't start earlier. I also said if he's starting the team is not good. But he'll start. I'm just accepting that fact as an assumption given the coach.

I feel like if we start Langford with Tabbs and Heath, which I'm all for btw, then we probably need Adams to start alongside Steff to offset some of the massive size disadvantage we could be at in ACC play. Maybe Felder grows into a full size big before the start of next season, he was very young. I hope so because that would look going forward into 21-22 also.

They're going to stink playing players just because they are tall in an era of hoop where tall is largely irrelevant.

You keep trying to drive the same point home about size but we got murdered on the boards last year going small. We ranked 323 in rebounds against. No chance we can win like that in the ACC, teams are to skilled and they are bigger.

I think its bit of a leap to call Felder one of our 5 best players. He is young with upside and room to grow but I think Adams and Scott are probably better right now. Maybe his game grows from freshman to soph year, I hope so, but wasn't overly impressed by him as a freshman.

I was impressed with him as a freshman. On what basis would anyone think two Patriot League guys looking to extend their career would be better than him? I think its a stretch to expect anything but warm bodies . Which is fine, they needed a few.
