Next years roster is intriguing
Only 1 true PG: Phillips
Lots of combo guards: Clark, Payne, Isabel, & VanLeer
2-3 wings: Wright, Teki, & Eubanks?
2 crossovers: Allen & Puryear
3 bigs: Gant, Rosburg, & Woods
Hope that means the tempo gets sped up big time.

Isabell is a true PG. Just because he can score doesn't change that.

Here is my roster estimation.

PG- Isabell, Phillips
SG(combo guards)- Clark, Payne, Van Leer
SF(wing guards)- Wright, Teki
Tweeners- Allen, Puryear
PF(stretch 4's)-Gant
C (Big man)- The Burg.

I don't know enough about Woods, and I have a bad feeling about Eubanks.

Is there anyway Rosburg could be taken out by a dedicated fan, Tonya Harding style?

Team definitely has the look of one that needs a high tempo game to succeed. Arkansas was the lone good team that they were able to play with this season.
Mizzou will need to run on any and every opportunity. Made shots & missed shots push the tempo gets some easy buckets before the D gets set. If it's not there then set and run the offense.

My best guess, giving rough minutes:

1 - Isabell(20); Clark(10); Phillips(10)
2 - Wright(20); Clark(20)
3 - Teki(30); Allen(5); VanLeer(5)
4 - Gant(20); Allen(15); Puryear(5)
5 - Rosburg(25); Gant(10); Puryear(5)

That gives total minutes of(last year's minutes in parenthesis):

30 - Teki(24)
30 - Gant(14)
30 - Clark(31)
25 - Rosburg(17)
20 - Allen(17)
20 - Isabell(15)
20 - Wright(20)
10 - Puryear
10 - Phillips
5 - VanLeer

Wood would eat into that Rosburg number significantly. Would probably also reduce Gant's numbers as he's not a 5 but might be forced to play it. I would imagine that Wright and Clark would be most affected by Payne if we get him.

I'm guessing Clark won't be losing many minutes to anyone

Wouldn't think so either. But I also don't see Wright playing only 5 minutes if Payne is getting 15. I suppose we could go extremely small with a PG Clark and Payne on the court at the same time and it could eat into Teki or Allen or VanLeer's minutes, but man that is small. That's 3 guys on the court that are lucky to break 6 foot.

Clark & Payne are both capable of playing the point.
I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't play together a lot. It's a bigger lineup than was used this year.

I had worked Clark in at PG already. Did not do that for Payne. So for every minute Payne plays at point, it means less minutes for Isabell(20), Clark(10) or Phillips(10).

Anderson talked last year about playing 3 PGs together so it's poss there as well. Other than Clark getting 30ish minutes and Rosburg getting close to 20 the other 150 minutes is a guess.

So 2 gone. That means 3 scholarships to fill. Presumably Payne and Woods take 2 of those.

PM was saying that Payne and Woods are visiting Apr.17. They also said they expect them both to commit. Thats the word right now. I think they said that would leave one spot to fill if those to wind up committing on their visit. So who they are targeting for that final spot, I have no idea.

KA's recruiting is about as exciting as his BB teams play. I have no idea who these two guys are coming to visit other than being juco transfers.

I know there were mutual conversations between us and Jones about returning. No clue how that materialized.

Also looks like he has added the 3 to his game. Maybe he could be our Frank Kaminsky
