Saw an article in genes page indicating all 13 are filled. Tried to pull it up but it’s a premium article

At this point unless there’s a surprise visit, that’s the roster. Van Lubin from Vanderbilt visited last weekend but ended up committing to North Carolina. Still a really good portal class (currently ranked number 4 in the country). Would have been nice to get a big man like Lubin but it’s not the end of the world. The scoring will run through the guard play.

…The scoring will run through the guard play.

Which should make this a fun team to watch.

 

[BonzoGoesToCollege]

I forgot delquan warren. I think he'll be an incoming freshman next year.

 

[TaleofTwoDogs]

The missing player is probably the Stansbury kid, he's only in his eighth year of a ten year contract. **

 

[Madisondawgs55]

You are missing the 2 freshman...EJ Paymon and Dellquan Warren

Why waiste info on 247. Our On3 coverage on this site is sooo much better

Paymon is an athletic 6'9" and 235#. Will probably be 6'10", 245# in the fall. He can handle the basketball, good passer, and should be a 12 plus minute player this fall. He is not a low post player, but in many HS was the tallest on the floor. Probably 7-8 points per game as a freshman.

And a patented 40% from the line.

Team free throw percentage will improve next season with the additions especially if the scoring runs through the guards. All the newcomer guards shoot well from the line.

I missed 3 games in 4 seasons while i was at state. Can't believe my fandom has reached the point that those are mostly just names. I know Hubbard, Matthews, Jones, Chol, and Murphy from last year but no idea who from that list is a guard, forward, center??? The mediocrity of the last few years and the portal have me to the point of not giving a crap until 1st tip.

Which kid, Shadrach, Meshach or Abednego?

 

[TaleofTwoDogs]

Does it matter? Anyway, I think they are on a rotation.

Mediocrity of the last few years has, in part, left you to not caring until the season starts?




17- some people have a wildly different definition of 'mediocre' than I have.

No Final Four - “MEDIOCRE!!!1!!1!1!1!!1!!”

Mediocrity and the portal, yes. Combine the 2 and I just don't give a **** about keeping up with roster changes. I'll just learn it while watching when the season starts.

Not making the big dance most years or heading home a game in is middle of the road - mediocre in my opinion. That's where we have been for some time. Last 2 years being some of the better ones in some time but still mediocre. Sweet 16 once every 3 years is better, but 2 out of 4 and you are at least good enough to be discussed about as a decent-good program.

 

[Called3rdstrikedawg]

The facts are simple. The 68 BEST teams do not play in the NCAA tourney. So just making the tourney and getting bounced in the first 8 or in Round is maybe a shade above mediocre. But most years the bottom 8 teams in the tourney are usually inferior to the Top 8 in the NIT because of the automatic qualifiers rule, or as I call it Affirmative Action for Lower Level conferences.
