This is not intended to be a "who is going to start" post, merely a listing of our current roster and recruits. If a player has eligibility they are listed:

PG: Frank Howard (jr), Howard Washington (fr)
SG: Tyus Battle (so)
SF: Tyler Lydon (jr), Matthew Moyer (r-fr)
PF: Taurean Thompson (so), O'Shae Brissett (fr)
C: Pascal Chukwa (r-jr), Bourama Sibide (fr)

A few things jump out at me:
1) we don't have any seniors. I can't remember the last time that happened. A direct result of the NCAA penalties.
2) we're super thin (physically thin) down low. We don't have any bruisers in the paint. Hopefully Sibide bulks up a little and comes ready to play. TT absolutely needs to add 15lbs of muscle for next year.
3) we're back to a weak shooting team other than Battle and Lydon. Hopefully Moyer surprises with his shooting
4) defense still a concern, especially in the low post. Really need Chukwa and Sibide to control the paint
5) if we're going to add another recruit it needs to be a shooting guard. Need to have another outside threat and give Battle some support. Fortunately the 5th year grad transfer pool is typically stocked with shooting guards.
