Jones coming off the bench to sub for either Wilkins or Chuha. Bhullar played very few minutes last season. And yet, it was enough to win the WAC tournament. What has really changed from a year ago? Wilkins, Chuha, and J. Jones are back. And, I guaranty you Marlon Jones will see more playing time than Bhullar saw last season. And, we still have a very athletic Johnny McCants on the bench. At the 3 position, 6'6 Stewart and 6'3 Lofton will definitely be an offensive upgrade from 6'5 Taylor and 6'7 Haley.
But a 6'3" guard playing the three is going to be at a total disadvantage at the defensive end
I doubt that will be a problem.
Isaiah Thomas was getting his butt handed to him on the defensive end by guys that were 5 inches taller than him, it'll be a problem.
Zach Lofton > Oscar Frayer
Zach Lofton > Josh Bruan
Zach Lofton > Gerald Martin
Zach Lofton > Casey Martin
Harris, Ndir, Lofton, Chuha, and Wilkins is the top starting five in the WAC.
Welp... You had the right school.
