Gaffney’s playing more than 15 per. He’ll get time at the 2 for sure.

I knew I was short on someone but couldn't figure out who because I had too many minutes left for Carlton

Seems like 2, 4, 5 are set with Bouknight, Polley, Whaley. Seems like it's gonna come down to Cole/Gaffney at the 1 and Jackson/Martin at the 3. The thing with moving Whaley or Sanogo to the 4 is it really clogs the paint which limits a lot of what we all expect Jackson and Bouknight to do when they're in

I agree with everything you say, with the exception of not including Cole among the starters. I thought that I heard Coach Hurley say something about Bouknight and Cole being definite starters. I also could be misremembering.
 
PG: Cole (25), Gaffney (15)
SG: Bouk (25), Adams (10), Gaffney (5)
SF: Martin (15), Jackson (15), Polley (10)
PF: Polley (10), Akok (15), Whaley (10), Martin (5)
C: Whaley (15), Sanogo (15), Carlton (10)

Bench- Brown, Springs

Totals:
25- Bouk, Cole, Whaley
20- Gaff, Martin, Polley
15- Akok, Jackson, Sanogo
10- Adams, Carlton

I think bouk plays a minimum of 30.
 
Cole(25)-Gaffney(15)
Bouk(30)-Jackson(10)
Martin(25)-Jackson(10)-Polley(5)
Whaley(25)-Polley(15)
Sanogo(25)-Carlton(15)

My best guess. It gets everyone we think needs to be in the rotation minutes. Akok coming back will throw a wrench in it that is unpredictable.

Adams, Springs, and Brown? Gaffney is too light.

Martin 5? Wow.

Absolute minimum. He shouldn’t come off the court if he’s not in foul trouble.

so it wasnt hurley that said no one should play over 25 mpg? if we are playing full court press the whole time i dont think bouk will be able to even make it a full 30

If i had to be honest, no. But somehow he'll probably get minutes too.

If I were setting a lineup I'd have him playing smaller minutes too, but Hurley loves him and said he'll play starter minutes

I really don't know how that's possible. Bouk is playing 30+ mins at his position, he also said Andre could be one of the best freshmen in the country, which requires he play 20+. Where does Adams mins come from?
 
His hypothetical ideal line-up runs out 10 guys for double digit minutes, with no one getting anymore than 30ish (give or take a bit for all of this, 16-17 team stats for reference, if you’re interested). Right now, Brown and Springs are on the outside looking in. The injuries to Akok and Adams provide opportunities for others, at least early on, but the whole key to the defense will be a healthy, shot blocking Akok. Let’s hope for that as soon as possible.

Given our depth, there might not be a need for anyone to average 30 minutes but I'm going to say that Bouknight will.
Expand ...

He averaged 26 as a late blooming pup and agree that saying 30 isn't going out on a ledge at all. Especially now that he's the Alpha. I'm more curious how close he gets to 40 in some battles.

He won’t. He’ll be around 32/33 on average, depending on his defense/fouls. If he’s pushed to much more than that, other people aren’t getting it done, which would be bad. Obviously.

i dont think it's that simple, at least not this year. we have the best 10 and 11th men in the country in Adams and Carlton. i'd rather get players to come here that want to win the big east and compete for a chip over guys that just want to play 35 mpg and put up big numbers cause they think theyll be a lotto pick (like everyone at memphis)

30 is plenty if we are pressing and running. If it's working and we are winning, I'm sure James will understand getting a few breathers.

There's a lot of hypotheticals that make it hard to give a blanket answer. But in a really simple way I think it might just be taking 5 minutes each from a few of the traditional big men like Carlton/Sanogo when we play someone like Creighton/Villanova and the opposite when we're playing Georgetown
