You're right, you're so smart. It's not like Florida isn't a completely different team away from home. And it's not like they didn't just get dominated by Tennessee in Gainesville. It's also not as though they aren't missing some players either. It's not like Florida isn't very vulnerable right now. You're absolutely right.

I thought Rosario and some other big were out? I think I caught that watching some SEC Network game Saturday though so it's entirely possible I got bad information. Dare I say it's probable...

Their only other sub averaging over ten minutes a game is Wilbekin.

If Donovan really cares about Grant, he'll suspend about 6 of his guys right before the game.

I wonder if Releford and Steele will start or be brought off the bench after the first timeout. I'd start them and hope we start fast.

Exactly. And it looks like Florida will be down to a 6 or 7 man rotation at best. Pressing would be good to get them tired, but their guards are so skilled that it'd also give up a lot of layups. It's a double edged sword

I would mix the press about half and half,with Releford able to penetrate,it could get there guards in foul trouble which would be an automatic W.....

We need Lacey and Randolph to heat up. Cooper and Hankerson have played well the past few games, now Levi and Lacey need to join their solid play. They aren't freshmen anymore. It's time to step up.

I think the easy move would be to start them on the bench but I'm not sure I see the point. They were suspended for a game, if they're ready to be back on the team then they might as well start.

Cooper has to start though.

Releford, Randolph, Steele, Cooper, Jacobs. Eblen, Engstrom (maybe Gueye a bit here and there), Lacey and Hankerson off the bench.

Gueye's problem is he fouls too much, especially offensively. He's a bit too slow timing wise setting screens. I still have a lot of hope for him.

I'd start Releford, Steele, Randolph, Cooper, and Jacobs just like you said.

We really need Lacey to step up and start playing more consistently. He hasn't done shite this entire season outside of the 1st half against UGA.

I'm sure he's still a little hurt with his back and all that, but it's time for him to step up and play to his ranking. He needs to take over like Cooper did.

I don't know what to think of Randolph. I like his effort defensively, but he just doesn't look good at all on the offensive end.

Same with lacey. I swear he has changed his entire shot since HS. It doesn't even look remotely the same.

Lacey's problem is that he's really stuck. He's not quick enough laterally to play the 2 nor does he have the consistent range from deep that you need to play the 2. You could put him at the 3 but then he'd be constantly undersized defensively.

He's got to make a move this offseason. Either get thicker and gain 20lbs and play the 3 or work on change of direction and speed along with the consistency of his outside shot. He's really good offensively if he can get in the paint.

I think Lacey's shot has changed a lot since he got hurt. He's shooting the ball higher than ever.

Randolph's shot looks bad from 3 but his midrange game looks fine to me. It's just everything rims out. He can't buy a basket.
