Soooooooooo.. who are we targeting now that Monroe is off the board?

how dare you try to recenter this argument. This is peak BY idiocy.

 

[fatlucy]

I guess it’s the off-season again…

[bigknight3]

Yeah I have no idea of the level of interest here from either side, but I hope it's high. I'd imagine this is a guy who'd start at the 2/3 and move Mullins into a 6th man role. But I suspect he might have better offers for minutes than what we can feasibly offer

That guy is already on the roster JStew

 

[BigTenFan]

Bob Cousy award just announced- best point guard in the country. He is barely 6 feet....and only a junior

Stewart is the starting 4 currently

Here is a Suggestion - start a thread on height where you can debate to your heart’s content. How about letting this one stick to the posted topic.

Each other.

Or Alex comes back and JStew starts at the 3, if his D improves. I hope Alex gives it another run.

 

[alexd]

Reed is coming back. Just announced.

Still would love for us to go after a backup 4/5 type even if AK comes back.

 

[Edward Sargent]

So that ends it. Heads say Pettiford had trouble with Florida guards size

Stewart's D did improve by the end of year and he was becoming our defensive stopper instead of Ross at the end of the year. His defensive metrics showed the improvement.

Still, will Pettiford enter the portal, and if so, will UConn have interest? Plenty of room for two ball handlers.

 

[Ewekon]

What?

It doesn't matter one iota what they are listed at

We are talking about realities here

We talkin' 'bout practice?

 

[REB1094]

Come on y’all. This is easy

6’5 PGs are good. For obvious reasons.

You can be less than 6’5 and still be REALLY good.

If you are 6’0 - 6’2 and not REALLY good, it’d be nicer if you were 6’5.

 

[TheHorde]

Now imagine the debates Patriots fans are having about Will Campbell’s arm length if you think the point guard height discussion is exhausting.

 

[TBHreal]

Stewart is the starting 4 currently

Stewart is the starting 3.

 

[HungryHu5ky]

Auburn's starting guards are 6-1 and 6-3
Florida's starting guards are 6-2 and 6-2
Houstons' starting guards are 6-1 and 6-4.

Bigger is better and I'm glad we got Silas, but cmon man. There's no way we'd turn down a Pettiford, a Clayton or a Cryer.

Clayton 6’3 Martin is 6’2 but look how hes built like a tank
Pettiford 6’1 is good on offense but gets exposed on defense by bigger guard
Cryer 6’1 same thing & Houston system is perfect for him
Again you will have those 1 offs no doubt but even Hurley knows a bigger guard is where he would have the most success

What do you guys think at this stage for completing the team build roster?

PF/C Bidunga, Folgueira
Guard. ??

We really need that backup PG even if he is a little undersized. We can't go into the year relying on Adams as the backup PG. Of all our freshmen he is the least ready and needs to hit the weights hard.

There are a ton of quality mid-major PGs still in the portal. I think we will get a real good one that fits our system who is willing to be a 6th/7th man on a blue blood championship contender

 

[80shusky]

We really need a another center. Foul trouble , injury, or if Reibe is underwhelming. Center gets thin real quick.

Doesn't need to be a big scorer either. A rim protector and defensive rebounder would be a great fit.

Yea alot guys entering the portal thinking they are getting paid and starting. But spots and money are filling up. But plenty of quality bench talent will be available as guys will have to settle with reality. Just have to be smart , diligent, and lucky lol
