Freshmen bigs also tend to get into foul trouble. What do we do when he’s on the bench?

Even if he puts up Anthony Davis numbers, we still aren’t close to replacing what we lose.

We need a grad transfer and for Harris to wake up in the worst way

In order:

Duke this year. Kentucky most years.

Less talented players get into foul trouble.

We are losing slaw, except for Martin. No one besides Martin can be trusted to play hard or smart for more than 10 minutes. The talent coming in is already better than what we are losing.

Harris will be fine. It's Jones that needs the wakeup call. Can't play 2 small guards at the same time.

Can't even play one small guard for long minutes against a half-court foe like Cincy, They will get the match-up they want & take advantage.

Lomax will be fine on defense. His liability of letting so many get past him will be less significant with two rim protectors behind him. On offense he does need to become a master of the teardrop, he is athletic and dedicated enough to make that happen this summer. Lomax's problem is James is only going to be here one year. Sophomore season may be his best season.

Yes, because it is so much better to keep ALo on the court so he can play OLE defense, while Wiseman fouls out in the first half because he keeps fouling the driving guard that ALo is "funneling" to him. But hey, ALo will still get his 28 minutes, who cares about Wiseman.

We know how you feel. Hopefully he will improve and we’ll get some additional guard help. If we roll with just Harris and A Lo next year that will be a mistake, but surely Penny knows that and is working hard on the recruiting trail to find guard help.
