Next year:

There are 3 guaranteed starters on net year's team
[LIST]
[*]JJ, Brown and Freeman in this order.  Freeman is not coming here to come off the bench.
[/LIST]
The two other starting positions up for grabs
[LIST]
[*]Bell, McLeod, Copeland, Chance, portal big, portal guard
[/LIST]
Bench
[LIST]
[*]Moore, Cuffe, Carey, Patterson
[/LIST]
Most likely to transfer
[LIST]
[*][B]Taylor[/B], [B]Hima[/B], [B]Carey[/B] (if he gets the talk that playing a level down would be in best interest) and [B]Bell[/B] (if he's told its an open competition for the SF spot and he sees hat Westry can do and/or we pursue portal forwards)
[/LIST]
Guess at starting lineup:
[LIST]
[*]Option 1: JJ, Chance, Freeman, Brown and Bell - Most talented starting five but with rebounding issues, Brown accepting center role and no true distributor; shooting dependent on Chance and Freeman being threats
[*]Option 2: substitute Bell for Mcleod or a portal center; rebounding solved but shooting is much worse
[*]Option 3: substitute Cope or portal PG for Chance in option 1
[*]Most likely: Red gets his wish and can play 10 and has versatility with 3 guard sets
[LIST]
[*]5 Guard rotation looks solid with JJ, Chance, Cope, Cuffe and Moore
[*]5 Frontline rotation of Brown, Freeman, Bell, McLeod and portal
[*]2 very limited minutes: Patterson and Carey
[/LIST]
[/LIST]
This doesn't look like a top 20 team but I suspect this squad would be good enough to make the NCAA's and potentially win a game or two.

Cuse!
