There are a lot of players that seem like they will need a lot of touches to get in rhythm and be their best offensively. We know Caver will run the point almost exclusively, so that leaves two spots for BJ, Talley, Green, Hueitt, and Godwin. Haynes is in the mix as well, but probably odd man out. Among all of the guys who were listed, you can probably find someone who thinks each will be the best offensive player on the team. How does that work itself out? Do we play some small ball with Talley at the 4? It seems we may be light at the 4 next year. Does someone redshirt? We know JJ likes to slot guys into a position, so I think we will see two of those guys playing the three and two playing the two. Hueitt looks like the only one that fits the JJ mold for a two, but I imagine he will slide someone else into that spot as well. Anyway, a lot of interesting questions about how you maximize the productivity of that group, which seems to be the key to really moving the team forward next year.

Now that, is the real question and I have no idea. What if BJ develops into a really good player? I really don't know. I hope we see Talley at the four at times. By the looks of what we have returning, that would probably be a likely scenario. Maybe something like this.

1. Caver, Fields
2. Hueitt, Green
3. BJ, Talley, Haynes
4. Talley, Kah? Brandan? (Yikes we are thin here)
5. Stith, Porter

Godwin Redshirt

We need a 4 for next year and we need it desperately if Kah can't develop.
