...this opens the door for a battle between returning rising-Soph. Zyon Dobbs and La-Monroe transfer Jalen Hodge for the starting point guard position. Of course, lots of things can happen between now and next season (and using the word "assuming" again in that we have a season).

-Can Jayvis Harvey play some point? Will Harvey return?
-Will HCMB bring in another point or combo guard who can run the point?

Losing Matt will be a big deal as I've posted already. Not only is he our best player - perhaps by far - but a 4th year starting senior would or could be a huge relief for HCMB and staff in their first year. Not to mention, Matt is the only real go-to guy on the roster in crunch time when we need a basket.

Matt is really talented and I hope he does remain on the team. However maybe he's not a good match for the system coach would like to implement. I have no idea how "coachable" Matt really is.
