Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2132483, member: 405"] We need 4 players - a point guard, two wing scorers and a big man who can defend the post. I'd like to see us get a JUCO big man, like Ongenaet sort of was or Diange turned into, so we can get 2 years out of him. The PG can be a 5th year guy again, but I think to play the forward of the zone for a 5th year transfer will be hard for most guys (if we learned anything from this year ...). I could see a guard at the top of the zone who is a 5th year easier than I could see somebody really mastering the forward positions - we come so high up on defense, then have to guard corner jumpers, and be able to cut off weak side rebounders at the short corner. We ask an awful lot from our forwards in this defense. So maybe we can go hunt another 5th year transfer who shot 40% from three for a mid-major. Maybe we can find another 5th year PG. But give me a forward and a big man who will be here for a couple years. [/QUOTE]
