He will start some, maybe most.  I am actually a big believer in the value of experience in college basketball.  Let's hope CV plays like a senior, and not like a guy who had two full years of being allowed to play terrible team basketball.  My personal test for him = assists.  If he's not sharing the ball on this team, it's time to take a seat.

Everyone is throwing out lineups, and I don't think Hurley will have a fixed lineup until late in the year.  If Akok isn't getting it done in some way, Polley will be in.  If Sid is hitting shots and blocking them on the other end, he's playing.  Hell, even Adams if he's doing positive things.  We have young guys with more talent than most of the older guys.  It's going to be an interesting mix.

What I'm most excited about, and why I think we will surprise people, is that Hurley can do something no UConn coach could do over the last 3 years, put good players on the bench when they aren't playing with the effort and intelligence required.   Aside from Carlton and Gilbert, I think minutes will drop.  Polley and Vital will play less.
