Novas flexibilty was more interchanging positions 1-3 with pinskton at the 4 and ocefku at the 5...Jenkins can defend 4s with his size and move pinkston to the 5 if necessary....and there was minimal drop off with their backup guards...
I'd suspect we really have three 4s in smith, bullock, Bentil.....
Did you read the article Boston?

I read your posts for whatever reason. A long series of contrarian and negative BS. we are not, and never will be, Kentucky, UNC or Duke. That is a fact. Coach has done very well in improving our program and the program is respectable. Of course we need some NCAA wins but then when you look at Gonzaga...perhaps our closest comparable..by your standard they also are an NCAA failure. More often than not they don't sniff the elite 8 especially tecently. So, the fact remains that Ryan was never projected as a 4 in the traditional sense. I wonder what you do for fun and I wonder who in your world ever meets your expectations. quote author=" thewalk" source="/post/47191/thread" timestamp="1438544528"]Novas flexibilty was more interchanging positions 1-3 with pinskton at the 4 and ocefku at the 5...Jenkins can defend 4s with his size and move pinkston to the 5 if necessary....and there was minimal drop off with their backup guards...

I never projected Ryan as a 4 in any sense...traditional or not...the article says he will play some 4. The same article says weak and thin....
How do you know what my expectations are?

Hey walk did you check on his 10th grade year to see if he started. I am really shock you didn't make a thread just too talk bad about this kid like you did Q. It's not hard to see you have no life bro and you are very bitter. I would love to know who you are so we can look at your 10th grade year to see if started. Need I remind you are on sidelines watching it's not nobody fault you never made it but your own. Stop being mad at kids for being something you never was that's a high major basketball player. Good luck with your life may you find peace and meaning because you really need it.

Let me know when you get to the 10th grade and we can compare resumes...
Are you stupid? The only "negative" comment I made about the kid is he doesn't project as a four which is confirmed in the same article that calls him weak and thin...
Now if we're comparing him to "q"... This kid hits all the food groups...

I think this team has no choice but to play Nova ball. I was a little bummed about not getting Jones but we have had all of the size in the world the past 2 years and while we made the tourney we still had first round exits. College ball is dominated by guards and if the freshmen can just provide shooting we will be ok. Last year we went into the year with just Dunn, Cartwright and Junior in the backcourt and Cooley made it work. I'm sure he will figure out a way. At least our bigs appear to be solid but time will tell.

The article says don't be surprised if he sees time at the 4.
With the current makeup, I wouldn't be surprised if Lindsey saw some time at the 4 too.

I would be pretty surprised to see Lindsey at the 4. You need to have someone at the 4 that can rebound. I realize he was playing the guard spot last year but Lindsey on had 34 defensive rebounds and didn't show a knack for crashing the glass. If you are going to play smaller at the 4 you need a LaDontae Henton-type rebounder who either has long arms or a nose for the ball -- or both. I suspect Bullock will play the 4 and then Bentil will slide over there when Q gives minutes at the 5. I think a lot of this depends on the defensive approach Cooley will take in terms of playing M2M or zone.

So if Bentil rolls an ankle or gets into foul trouble who plays the 4 when Q comes out of the game? Gotta be Fazekas or Lindsay or Lomomba I guess. I think that is where losing Jones hurts the most.

Honestly it might be Planek before it's Lindsey at the 4. Obviously that says a lot about the depth and how it's critical that everyone basically stay healthy this season.

Planes will see some minutes this year. Been looking good in pickup. Big time hustle guy. May wind up being a quieter version of White Lightning.

I've held back from posting this till now...but did anyone else notice that Faz specifically mentioned Coach Simon in the short video? A silent alarm went off in my head that won't turn off for the next two years. Damn.
