    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    I would be happy with the mid - range shot and his post ups... Young does not jump to high so it may not be a jump shot. Just a thought, not a rip.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    The coaching staff knows the team is stacked at the guard position. Due to that reality, there are moments Flip 'may' play the 5. However, everyone knows he's not comfortable at the 5.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    I foresee players staying 2 years unless their stock is super high and/or they are injury prone and their stock is high.

    Health and Injuries will determine everything.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    Young is a fan favorite, so he will initially get PT in the beginning. It will come down to chemistry, need and healthy. Having 10 capable players is a Great Problem.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    Perimeter Defense is a conversation we have not talked about enough. I believe with Roach, Proctor and Flip coming back that is 50 points on any given night. What needs to be address is making sure the other team don't give us 50 plus points, particularly on the perimeter.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    Well said Fourteen. History has shown us we need a BIG to protect the rim, rebound and defend. If the BIG can score too, it's a plus.

    New assistant coach hired

    Ooooweee Bmbritt... you are a tough sell. It's absolutely a Chi - Town connection. It's all about recruiting. There are moments you need a different voice when you walk into that dining room or kitchen or gym. Hopefully, this will be a good hire.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    TRUTH... Development will be the sign of who starts, gets pt and on - court chemistry.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    It's difficult for me to believe Young or Reeves won't start at the beginning of the season. As time moves on, one of these combinations may become a reality.

    New assistant coach hired

    Possibly. Look at his previous positions and it will explain somewhat his role at DUKE.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    I can see that. Here's another thought, rebounding. If our shot isn't falling, do you want Flip to be the primary rebounder? His double - doubles last season was based on less pressure to perform with Lively and Young sharing minutes at the 5.

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    I once believed that, but with the NIL and extra COVID year, that may not be a reality. There are more big 6'9 to 7ft centers playing College Basketball then we may think. If those BIGs have weight, they will be able to push Flip around. If they are athletic, that becomes another issue. I get...

    What's Your 2023-24 Starting Squad?

    It's difficult for me to trust Flip's post defense. I get starting McCain for shooting purposes and possibly what was promised. I just do not want Flip in early foul trouble.
