What is your favorite potential Lineup?

I think this will be our best lineup (with either of the PG+Bouk) against midmajor type teams where spacing isn't as important and power/athleticism can win alone.

ccsu and hartford are the only midmajors on the schedule and we should be able to beat them with springs and brown as starters

we cant rely on just power/athleticism to even beat depaul and gtown though, which are projected to be the worst teams in the BE again. depaul beat Iowa and Texas tech last season. Gtown beat Texas and Cuse and only lost to duke by 8

No love for BAdams?

All the love for Brendan! Thank you for pointing that out.

The new wings have a tough task in from of them to beat him out for playing time.

Brendan’s tenacity and leadership will be pivotal in getting this team through tough spots this season.

I keep thinking by the tournament our lineup will be:

Cole
Bouk
Jackson
Akok
Whaley

I want to see Sanogo take over the 5 spot but I’m convinced that Whaley won’t give it up and continues to evolve. The other tough one to leave out is Martin, as I really think he will be the surprise of the season. I’ve heard Kromah comparisons but, not to discount what Lasan did for us in 14, I think Martin will be much more.

I just can’t quantify how great it is to have this kind of depth/competition. Having to worry about how some guys are going to find minutes is an infinitely better problem to have than talking ourselves into Sid Wilson playing the 5 after Carlton and Whaley get hit with early fouls.
