Who's your starting five?

[chickenbox]

I'll throw out one we haven't seen:

Felton
Jenkins
Coleman
Middleton
Okorafor

Height will be an issue in the BE. But it's going to be an issue no matter what. And this lineup is actually taller than the one we've been rolling out.

Good offensive lineup….which means Sha is not likely to try it.

Defense may be fine as well. Felton is the only one we've haven't seen for extended minutes

 

[bigraym]

I like the suggested lineup, how long they will play together is in question, as Sha wishes to sub frequently....

 

[garyshu71]

Davis , Richmond, Coleman, Jenkins, Okorafor.

 

[NYC Pirate]

I like that as well. There would be better tempo on offense. The other benefit would be respectable 2nd unit of Dual, Wusu, Aligbe, Toumi and Gus/Godswill.

Sha will always lean to Wusu and Prince out there.

This is actually a slightly taller lineup with Felton being taller than Wusu and Middleton/Prince being same height.

What we're losing is weight (Aligbe +30 Lbs or so) and experience.

We're also asking alot for a kid who's D1 experience is basically 20+ min of floor time to now start.

Felton looked good yesterday, but he’s not ready to run the ship against high major opponents.

We’ve had nothing to be excited about this far so let’s pump the breaks a bit. That wasn’t a good FAU team

Our pg situation has been a disaster, and sha's started another freshman most of the season

Then who is?

 

[Gohall129]

Posh

 

[JTSHU]

Then who is?

Yea really who is? There is no other option. Jahseem and zion is all we got

 

[Wolf11642]

@Halldan1, is Zion officially done? Certainly seems that way after not making the trip.

Agreed on Felton starting at PG as a freshman after 20 mins of action is jumping the gun but we have no other better options presently

...who has been averaging 12 min per game. You want similar #s from your frosh pg?

 

[chickenbox]

I welcome dissenters to post their own starting fives. Not saying mine is the be all and end all. Just what I'd like to see given a shot based on the season to date.

That would be a major bump at this point

 

[Mbrantfan88]

It's probably a worthless move if you only play min limited minutes as a starter.

I like the idea of Felton being added to the regular rotation so we' in the same camp wanting him to get more minutes.

And since you asked,...

Wusu - Felton's increase in minutes keeps him from playing 35 min/g at point.
Jenkins
Coleman
Middleton
Godswill

Lets see what Feltons got.Throw him in there.Could it be meaningfully worse?

Harmon has issues that must be worked out with Sha. They are personal and not meant for the board. If they are not worked out he will no longer be on the roster.

I like Harmon a lot and think he would be our starter at the point. But.......

 

[TheHall87]

The only change to the current lineup I would make is Toumi ahead of Aligbe. If you want Toumi off the bench for his scoring potential, then I would start Tubek in that spot.

Regardless, other than Jenkins and Coleman, nobody has shown they deserve to start.

 

[Halldan1]

As bad as Prince has been on offense his D is very good and he's tough on the boards. But the way he's playing on O means you are limited in who you can play with him.

 

[CaptBob]

Sounds like we have another TT situation---

Sounds like NIL or starting/reserve disagreement

Sounds like we have no info about what's going except that it's a personal issue and so we should not speculate
