@Robin Washut With all the good vibes going around for the football team and recruiting, I thought it was time to see how things may be going for the basketball program.
So I have a couple of questions/would like to hear your opinion on a couple of things:
1. Isaac Copeland. What is the timeline for finding out if we get him for the full season? What do you personally think? It seems as though he checks all the boxes to get the year back, but I can never read the NCAA.
2. 2 open scholarships. I kind of assume that Miles and Co. will keep one of those two scholarships open unless they can find another grad transfer. But what news is there with filling these two spots? I know they are after Hans Brase, but I just don't get the feeling that this will end up working out. Are there any players we should be keeping tabs on?
Seems to me that we need another 4/5 player and maybe another 1/2 or a combo guard. We're pretty stacked at the 3.
3. Starting 5. I know it is a long way off, but let's assume that Copeland is cleared to play Day 1, what do you think would be the Starting 5? My guess is this:
PG -- Watson
SG -- Taylor/Palmer/Gill (Maybe Akenten if he's ready, but I think it's a stretch for Day 1)
SF -- Roby
PF -- Copeland
C -- Jordy
6M -- Allen
7M -- Palmer/Taylor/Gill
8M -- Duby
9M -- Akenten/McVeigh
10/11M -- Gill/Palmer/McVeigh
OK, now I'll let you get back to football.
