Buy/Sell Banks,Wells,Green beat Lewis/Cunningham/Price 3 vs 3...

in basketball? I'm buying in bulk. I had MJohnson instead of Marcus Green but something tells me Marcus Green would be sneaky good at basketball.

There is little doubt in my mind that the best basketball players at Mississippi State University are on the football team.

It would be cool to see someone pull a reverse Michael Gholar...

Surely one of Dan's guys has a jump shot. Ray needs to take out a roster loan come January.

But to answer your question, I think it'd be close. Only because Cunningham and (especially) Wendell have a height advantage over all three football guys. Athleticism probably wins out, but if you replace Price with any other guy on the hoops squad, I'm taking them.

Probably so, but that doesn't mean they'd make a significant difference if they joined the basketball team. Maybe we'd gain from having the added athleticism, but they might do more harm than good from being at square one in terms of college-level technique and knowledge of schemes and plays.

Cunningham doesn't have a height advantage over any of those guys. Green, Banks, and Wells are all about 6'2-3", Cunningham is about 5'11' to 6'.

I'm serious, why can't this happen? Would Mullen allow it?

just one player? We need the help and I'm willing to say it would help attendance. I for one would be much more interested in this season.

 

[jamdawg96]

Just going by the rosters. They could be inaccurate, but Cunningham is listed as 6'3"... Banks and Wells listed as 6'2", Green as 6'1".

Add Banks, Wells and Bumphis to this team and it would quickly rise in my rankings as favorite basketball team all-time.
