The 2/3 spots will be spread out between Hueitt, Godwin, Stith, Green, and Haynes. There is not going to be guys designated as only a "2" or only a "3."

If you are asking me then no, I haven't accused him of lying. Don't know why you would even ask that.

As far as McClinton goes, he SHOULD be playing the 3 since that is where he played in high school and also for three years at Wake Forrest (4 if you included his red shirt year). Now suddenly he transfers to ODU and he is best suited to play power forward? At 6'-7" , 200 LBS? Does that make sense to you?

If ODU was going to start playing a full court press, half court zone defense, and fast break offense then I could maybe see it. I seriously doubt that will ever happen under Jones. If McClinton plays the 4 at that weight he will likely get schooled by some of the bigger power forwards he would have to body up to in ODU's man-to-man defense. Denzel was a bigger body than McClinton and probably at least as good of a defender and rebounder (likely better).
