In a perfect world, 7th/8th guy at 15-20 mpg. Let him jump start the second unit scoring. protect him on the floor with some solid defenders with at least one guard and the other forward being guys that can defend competently so Jimmy can focus on O.

In reality, with no portal additions, and only the frosh and Benny gone, he may have to start again, even with JB gone. I just don't know how protected we can get. Maybe put Frank as the opposite forward to help with D (if he can get his stuff together) and put Sy and Joe up top. That doesn't make me feel great. That means a frosh forward is in the rotation that has to play and we'll need Q to be able to get into the guard rotation. Which maybe he can anyway.

Either way, I think he needs to be about a 15-20 mpg guy at most.

I do think a new coach would bring in at least one portal PG and one portal Wing.

I can find a few older Cuse teams where slotting in Jimmy in the second unit would be really helpful and I think he would be amazing.

Basically, for Jimmy, on a decent Cuse team, 7th / 8th guy being allowed to focus on O and give it his best on D, but be protected. 20 mpg.
