Room Or Interest In Mac for 2021?

[HuskyHawk]

i said something similar above. in 2021 we could have:

PF- akok/springs/patterson(?)
C- sanogo/brown/mac(?)

that's a lot of bigs and there aren't a lot of minutes available behind akok and sanogo to begin with.
but just to play devil's advocate- in 2022 akok and sanogo expect to be gone, in which case we might be thin up front without mac:

PF- springs/patterson
C- brown/clingan(?)

is clingan expected to start as a freshman or would we have to rely on brown developing into a quality starter as a junior? springs could also play some C though, which would balance things out. and lets not forget about martin who will probably be a senior in 2022 and can play some stretch 4.

PF- springs/patterson/martin
C- brown/clingan

Who is Patterson?

#37 in composite. 6'7 SF

#37 in composite. 6'7 SF

Did I miss a commitment? He looks like a SF to me.

No commitment and I don't think we're a leader by any means. Not sure why he's being penciled in yet by anyone

he's listed 6'8 210 in places which would make him an ideal stretch 4 in an otherwise weak class at that position

no penciling in i put a question mark next to his name. he's just a placeholder stretch 4 b/c i think an akok backup/replacement is a priority for hurley in 2021, with gak and samson johnson looking like backup plans for now.

if springs is really 6'10 now and doesnt develop a three pointer i think he splits his time between PF/C

Definite departures: Tyler Polley, Isaiah Whaley, Josh Carlton

Possible Early departures: James Bouknight, Andre Jackson(would be a special season)

2021 Wish List: Rahsool Diggins, Hunter Sallis, Patterson/Keels/Sampson, Mac Etienne

I’m not too worried about getting Mac. I think a lot of people are sleeping on Javonte Brown Ferguson. He’s going to play next year and start as a sophomore. I think the priority should be a scoring guard to start after bouk leaves and a SF who can play stretch 4. Patterson would be a good pick up but he strikes me as someone who expects to start year 1. A PG will be needed to develop as gaffneys back up the following year as well. Clingan 2022.

sanogo is definitely starting as a sophomore along with akok

i agree a backup/replacement stretch 4 is more important than a C in 2021 since we'll also have brown and springs is a PF/C

 

[Dooooooomed]

Yes.

After evaluating Mac Etienne last December, I saw a prospect who quickly was reaching his max potential at the high school level meaning that he could move into the 2020 class. Six months later, Etienne is weighing a move into the 2020 class and is currently ’50-50′ on it.
