Issue is shooting. You wanna put Rese, Andre, and Akok in the game that means Cole is the only proven shooter on the floor. That's a disaster. Until 1 of Rese or Dre learns to shoot, playing them together with Sanogo will be hard. Especially if one of them is at the 2

Imo you need a minimim of 3 threats to shoot the 3 35% or better at any given time to be able to compete with the big boys. Cole will always fill that role. Whaley and Johnson might. So Sanogo + Rese + Jackson seems unlikely. Even less likely with Akok who still has a pretty broken shot. If he has improved then it opens up a lot more lineup possibilities. Recruiting non-shooters teally handicaps lineup versatility.

Defense as well. Andre can defend the 2 for sure. Rese most likely though he is at his best bodying bigger wings. Polley ain't defending low major 2s, let alone in the Big East.

Not concerned about ballhandling really. Always seems to work itself out. If we get pressed these guys aren't too TO prone. If it gets ugly you just throw in Gaff or Sool as an extra set of hands.
