I am not saying that the following lineup should be our starters, nor am i saying that they will reach their upside this season, just that in the course of their careers at SU, that these are the players with the most potential at their positions:
Center - I do not see a lot of upside for Sid with his injury history or for Marek playing out of position. Jesse is a huge unknown; therefore, my biggest upside center is JBA with the potential of his three point shooting to add a totally new dimension to our O. Hopefully the rebounding and D can hold up well enough for his position.
PF - I will go with Oshae who has proven much, but still has plenty of room to improve his shooting and finishing at the rim. If he leaves, Bras has all the tools.
SF - Elijah - he had a very successful first season, room to improve his handle and add more dimensions to his game.
2G - Guerrier - he can potentially be a solid three point shooter, enuf to supplant Buddy, and he adds athleticism and handle and should be able to translate that to solid D.
PG - This one is easy for me, it is Goodine. he can shoot, he is athletic, and hopefully he can continue his development as a solid passer.
Others not mentioned:
Jalen - didn't impress at all as a frosh. too soon to give up on him, but a modern PG needs to hit some treys and that is his achilles heel even if the rest of his game came together.
Joe G - limited by size and athleticism. If somehow he could become another Frechette that would be a deal changer.
Buddy - Deadeye three point shooter, good size. I like his forays into the lane, but he has to finish on those 10 footers instead of stopping and kicking (unless he has drawn two defenders). he will be very good, but i just don't see as much upside as i do for QG.
Washington - love the kid, but just too limited athletically. If he could hit threes like buddy then he would have a shot.
