Yeah, reality is that there will be a ton of rotation. Brown Dunans, and Lang coming off the bench is no certainty.
Dean is trying to play again but his shoulders are in poor shape. I can't imagine him holding up . You'd like Heron to be your 2 with Harper taking over at 1 unless we bring in a GT 1.

Absolutely, we can't get anyone to come here. Even Missouri Kids.

You have LSU way too low, assuming Blakeney is back. If he's not, then yeah we're at the bottom.

I don't follow cbb recruiting but I assume Kansas gets who they want out of that area now.
That's tough because I think St Louis would produce some good prospects.

B12 has its way with KC kids. But Florida has a pipeline school in STL which is a bummer.

Texas A&M - Lose Caruso, House, and Jones, so it's time for that 2015 recruiting class to step up. Should be preseason #2 behind Kentucky.
That's not all A&M lost. They also lost assistant coaches Rick Stansbury (Western Kentucky) and Kyle Keller (Stephen F. Austin) to head coaching jobs.

Looks like we'll play 2 true freshman in Harper and Heron, IMO. We're looking at grad transfers that could shape the complexion of our team, though.
WRONG
Dunans starts at PG. He's got good playmaking ability and nice size.
Harper, Bryce Brown and TJ Lang are great spot up shooters, New Williams will be 100%. TSD may return. We will be look at a big as a grad transfer

We don't get a ton of kids from MO. Do we?
Beal
Who else?
No one more recent than Beal and that was 3 years ago.

Dunans will be the point. Bookmark this.

David Lee was from Missouri, right?
Posted on 4/7/16 at 4:46 pm to thirdlawson
Yeah but that's a long while ago. (Lee left UF 11 years ago)
That's not exactly a pipeline I don't think. Or is it?

David Lee and Beal both went to Chaminade. Florida was also going hard after Jayson tatum, another Chaminade kid.
Posted on 4/7/16 at 4:49 pm to roadGator
I didnt mean like a constant pipeline, But that HS produces a few 5 stars and you guys nearly went 3/3

Losing Coleman hurt IMO because of his ability to drive and dish. He was never good at taking the basket to the rim due to his size, but when he drove, he was really well at passing it to the high key and creating an open shot for other players.
I don't know what to expect in year 2 of CAJ, but I am hoping the tempo of the offense is a lot higher. Another thing I hope for is Hall to develop some kind of offensive game inside. Really think CAJ wants a team that heavily relies on their outside shooters, so Bama needs to have someone who can compliment that and also box out and win help create 2nd chance opportunities.
Adding Key, King, Ar'mond, and hopefully another grad transfer should make things interesting and help the talent level; however, I just don't think we're at that point yet where we will make the tourney. Last year was fun until the end, so you never know.

It's always a crapshoot when you throw a new coach into the mix but even if Baldwin & Jones move on (think Baldwin is 100% gone, still hearing 50-50 on Jones) Vandy can contend for a NCAA slot next year. Still a long way to go with draft declarations and grad transfers obviously. Kornet, Roberson & Fisher Davis are a nice core for s new coach to work with. LaChance after a horrible season began to come on at the end and Joe Toye is going to be an all SEC level player in the near future.
Will be a very interesting season on west end.

Arkansas - Lose Bell and Whitt, bring in a bunch of JUCOs, Barford looking to be the best of the bunch. If Kingsley stays, they could fight for a tourney spot.
It seems Kingsley is staying.
So Arkansas will return Kingsley, Hannahs, Watkins, Beard, Thompson and bring in a two time JUCO all american, a JUCO all american, another JUCO top 6 kid.
For Mike's sake, Arkansas better do more than just "fighting" for a tourney spot.

I admit I'm more then a little worried about the player attrition over the last couple of years and whether Arkansas will have the sheer numbers to play the pressing/up tempo style that Mike is dead set on.

We still have 2 more additions to make to our roster from most likely grad transfers. If we can stay healthy for a change we will be a solid NIT team and finish around 7th in the conference.
