It will be really interesting to see what the minutes breakdown ends up being. 15 eligible players on the roster. I'd bet we'll see a redshirt or two handed out.
Whittington will obviously command big minutes at one front court spot and if fully healthy the assumption would be Pippen would as well. Personally I'm really excited to see what Castillo brings as he seems like he could be a defensive game changer. No idea what to expect from the two freshman and now Beck is in the mix. Normally guys with his build end up as 4's at Kent but we could have some pretty intriguing lineups with him at the 3. It seems like our front court is going to be a little more mobile than past seasons so at least on paper stretching the court on offense and getting out on the shooters on defense wouldn't be a huge concern. Excited to see how the staff pieces the rotations together.

One thing you do have to give Kent the benefit of the doubt on ... the Flashes usually figure things out at some point in the season - sometimes early, sometimes late - then its just a matter of how well they match up/compare with the rest of the MAC.

No ??? at this point this team has some very interesting pieces and parts.
