Is it too early to talk about 2014-15?

[06panther10]

In 2014-15, the core of our team will consist of some combination of the following:

Tuttle, Sr
Deon, Sr
Morgan, So
Washpun, Jr
Jesperson, Jr
Bohannon, Jr
Buss, Sr

And also Lohaus, Friedman, Koch, Knar, Carlson, etc.


Holeeeee crap, that's going to be a good team. That team right there is going to be very veteran, athletic, with lights out shooting and awesome size on the wings.

We've never had length on the wing like we will for the next few years. The days of having three six foot guards on the floor are over.

We are going to be able to out-shock the Shockers with our lineup length.

With Deon, Lohaus, or Wes playing PG, at any given time we could have a lineup were all 4 other guys on the court are from 6'6 to 6'10....

Bennett needs to gain about 30-40 pounds of muscle between now & then, otherwise there will be no interior defense to speak of, from what I can see.

With Deon, Bo, Washpun, Morgan, Jesperson, and Knar does Lohaus now redshirt?

no, imho...

Why would he? As opposed to all the other guards you listed, he is the only true PG. I see him having a 1 year apprenticeship as Deon's backup before taking over the following year.

Did I miss something? Did Marv transfer? Or are you just not including him as someone who will make a contribution?

Also, were going to be bigger on the wings but were going to lack a post presence beyond Tut. And after he is gone we might really have trouble unless one of these young guys really emerges.

Could you imagine those wings and guards with Koch and Jordan down low? Or even Stout and Coleman? No offense to Tut, but he may be lacking a partner in crime the next two years.

Nope, I didn't forget Marv, it was just an unintentional omission on my part. And I think its completely up in the air for him to be a regular rotation player in the next two years to be honest. He showed some good flashes last year in the few spot minutes he received, but he certainly is not a proven player at this point. Just on pure potential and expectations alone, he will be behind Morgan and Jesperson at his position.

I don't think you can completely write off our post play (other than Tuttle) at this point. As of now, we have Buss (6'9), Friedman (6'8), Koch (6'9), and Carlson (6'7) as the main size for the next few years. Is there a 7 footer like Jordan or a sure-fire stud like Adam Koch in there? Probably not, but that's not to say 1 or more of those guys can be very good players.

I personally think that Ted Friedman has a chance to be a very good player, and can contribute right away. If he can come in right away and defend/rebound, he will be a perfect type of player to pair with Tuttle. Same with Nate Buss, who is already proven to be a gifted scorer. If he can get stronger and better defensively he has a chance to be that guy to pair with Tuttle as well.

We have no size or athleticism and we should disband basketball now. Hey, what's that piece of sky doing in my yard? (I'm currently interning with R&B as I wait for my teaching license...)

So $5 all of next year? Can we skip the play to play tournament next year if 2014 is the year to care?

You reach a new level of being a ****ing douchebag with every post.

Re: Is it too early to talk about 2014-15?

I think this year and next will all be based on the ability of Morgan and Friedman to contribute right away. If they are as good as many think they are, we have a lot to be excited about.
