Re: 2019-20 Men's Roster
Originally posted by GopherHole View PostI don't get too caught up in which player will be playing which position on the floor. Even the NBA will adjust their lineups during a game to make the opponents react to them. Most mid-majors and smaller don't have the luxury of having many athletic players that are 6'10" or taller.
There will be times we go with a big lineup and times where you will see a fast moving/deep shooting lineup that will have four guards on the floor. Heck, even when I play pickup ball in town I find myself guarding bigs because I'm not nearly as quick as I was 25 years ago and I'm a 6' point guard. With good fundamentals, most guards with any length can guard a 4. The exceptions are trying to guard a Daum who can shoot over you from well beyond the arc.
I'm curious as to what/where Owen King will play this year. With the Return of Brandon Key, and the Redshirting of Matt Mims done... we have 2 PG's that pretty much play the #1.
Last year, Owen backed up Tevin mostly... played a little bit of wing, but not much. The few little video segments the MBB account have put out did show Mims running the point, so I wonder if Owen will play primarily wing?
-He can do both, and I'm not saying it's bad, or good or anything... just wondering how it's going to look. I guess I'm just ready for the season!

It will depend on how the team evolves... you know if Matt D, and Allou D, are progressing well, and Wilson can hold down the 4, he'll probably be the 3 more.
But he could be the 4 as well.

Originally posted by GopherHole View PostI will need to back this up at a later date with sources, but when he was at Memphis, teammates and others gushed at his effort. He's unselfish, willing to do the dirty work and is as smooth as they come. Combine talent, unselfishness, and effort and you've got something special.
However, he still needs to execute this and gel with his teammates. Count me as excited!

Re: 2019-20 Men's Roster
This is big news. We are going to fly under the radar from an expectation standpoint. I personally think we will have a really good year.

Re: 2019-20 Men's Roster
Kind of hyper-focused on football right now but this is indeed good news. Looking forward to seeing how the team looks under Coach Hendo and Coach Klink. Certainly will take some time for everything to come together but I am cautiously optimistic that we are going to be better than most people think.
Ok, back to football.
Buck the Fison!

I don't know his major, but it could affect his progress towards degree depending on when the courses for his major our offered.

But adding a player of his talent to the lineup is HUGE. He can shoot the ball too.
