Next Year Starters

[BCPanther]

He was indeed Mr. Basketball in 2004. He just seems to fit in better with UNI than he did in Iowa City. I am also really excited about Kerwin Dunham. He appears to be a great scorer and if he would have been a little bigger last year he would have helped a bunch.

[BonduBluejay10]

Yea I watched every game kerwins senior year and he was lights out every game. And over the last few years thats a good fit with the panthers. I am really excited to see how this panther team does its gonna be really different without stout and mckowen.

[BonduBluejay10]

So what do you think about the battle for the small forward spot between Kerwin and Carlton?

[panther2317]

I think Carlton should get the nod, but I can see Kerwin playing valuable minutes as a freshman and hopefully gaining confidence through the year. Like PTTB has said, 'it's nice to have a 6'6 guy on the wing playing for you. It sounds as if Kerwin is playing well in Thailand...so that's a great start to the year.

[BonduBluejay10]

alright thanks panther2317.

[Panthers to the Bone]

I see the starters being:
PG- Kwadzo
SG- Josten
WG- Reed
PF- Koch
C- Coleman
MVC's 6th Man of the Year: Jordan Eglseder

[BMPanther]

I would love to see this line-up.

PG- Josten
SG- Reed
WG- Koch
PF- Coleman
C- Jordan
MVC's Freshman of the Year: Dunham

[Khan4Cats]

I like what Dunham and Koch have shown (statistically at least) in Bangkok. Brown hopefully has built some confidence as well. But, I agree with PTTB's line-up. I think we'll see a lot more of Jordan this year, as well as Kerwin, Travis, Lucas O'Rear and Matt Culliver off the bench. The unfortunate fall off is Adam Viet, he's just never really developed beyond a one-dimensional threat and the younger talent has passed him by. Best thing will be to bring him along for another ride to the Dance.

My picks

PG-Kwadzo
SG- Josten
WG- Reed
PF- Eglseder
C- Coleman

I think Reed is a for sure starter next season. He played decent minutes and had respectable stats during his play at Iowa, and he played on a much better Iowa team than we saw last year.

I am very excited to see him showcase his talent.

[UNIAlum95]

PF- Eglseder
C- Coleman

If we see this lineup, I think Jordan will be the center with Coleman at the 4. I think your lineup will happen many times during the year.

[Chitown Panther]

If we see this lineup, I think Jordan will be the center with Coleman at the 4. I think your lineup will happen many times during the year.

I think Jordan would be the 4 because he has a soft touch jump shot.

[Matt Trump]

IF big Jordan doesn't start, then how much time will he look at getting throughout the year?

[BCPanther]

I don't think he will start. He still will get 22-27 minutes a night.

PG- Ahelegbe
SG- Josten
WG- Reed
PF- Koch
C- Coleman

Eglseder, Dunham, Brown, Culliver, and O'Rear should also get pretty good minutes. There is a chance that no one has to play more than 30 minutes a night...

[BMPanther]

Is there any reason Reed can't play the two, Josten one, and start Coleman, Jordan, and Koch? I think the biggest question of this equation would be Reed at the two. Any other thoughts?

[GonzoCat]

I think we are deep and talented. There are going to be 3-4 players who don't start that probably would have at any other time in the history of Panther basketball. It's a good problem to have. Everybody will make an important contribution to the overall success of the team.
