And who ends up in his dog house
With this kind of depth it could turn into a kennel.

conceivably our shortest guy on the court for spans will be 6'6 (anchored by a 7'2 center) if we go with a AW/Battle backcourt - that's ridicI don't think anybody in the national media realizes we also have a 7'2'' center to go with our 6'10'' shot blocking power forward. There's no reason why we can't be the best defensive team in the country.

We need to not overlook the experience of Cooney and G up top. Their experience and knowing where to be and when can't be over emphasized. We may have better athletes now but in JBs zone, knowledge and experience is every bit as important.

I think his two whipping boys will be Frank and TT with TRob close behind.And who ends up in his dog house
Good. We weren't top 25 before the 2003 NC season.

Yeah I think expectations need to be tempered...at least initially.
We are loaded. It will be fascinating to see which seven players JB will use in his rotation.
and just to illustrate the crazy versatility we'll have - it is quite likely that Rico Lydon will see significant time at all 3 front-court positions - and be dangerous/hard to guard at each one... oh the possibilities...
See you in phoenix, Doc!
It's going to be 8 or 9 this year. This is one of those teams where he will actually do it, because we need all those different parts.
yeah, "significant" probably isn't the word to use for Lydon's projected minutes at the 5 - but I do think there will be certain games where JB goes with that, at least for stretchesI'll be shocked if Lydon plays significant time at center this year. The only way I could see it is if we do it out of desperation against a small ball lineup trailing Duke with 5 or 10 minutes left in the game.
We have our best new shot blocker since Fab Melo this year. We have a senior who stayed healthy last year in Coleman, and we have a 6-10 kid who we would like to give some minutes to for his development. Lydon doesn't need to play center on this team. He's going to be the featured guy on offense, and we have so many parts around him.
