Fun thread. What's funny is that Pope really is going to be able to adapt to any given situation. Some games may warrant more of a defensive line up the whole time, while other games we can get away with stretching the floor and pulling from deep often. It's gonna be fun to watch Pope strategize.

Agreed.

I think that’s the starters first game. I’m not convinced JQ will be ready by then.

Wet Blanket Lineup:

Pg-Johnson
Sg-Williams
Sf-Dioubate
Pf-Jelavic
C- Mr Q

Even if Oweh and Lowe opt to go to the League we are gonna be a force. Little to no chance this happens.
Thus the Wet Blanket name.

What if we lose Oweh and Lowe to the draft, and Quaintance is unable to get back from his injury in time to be effective for us?

Even Wetter Blanket Lineup

Bench: Johnson, Noah, Jelavic, Potter, and Moreno.

Not happening, but it shows our depth.

Pope has to be salivating thinking about all the different lineups/rotations that he can go with this year.

JPFisher · May 8, 2025

Mop up lineup.
PG – Johnson*
SG – Chandler*
SF – Noah
PF – Potter
C – Moreno

*Can be switched out

If 15 scholarships officially goes into effect, I fully expect the guards to change.

I just think that as it stands, Pope will get Johnson as much playing time as possible. Chandler is there because I had to pick the youngest shooting guard. Maybe Williams plays there instead in mop up time?

That's a young but pretty talented mop up squad lol.

I don't expect them to be in often thanks to how many players we have to get minutes, but I think we could see this a few minutes a month, maybe.

Make your free throws lineup

Lowe

Jelavic? JJ? Noah? Garrison?

Also I would swap Jelavic for Potter in the 3pt lineup. Garrison could work his way in there too

For the Tallest, you could move Williams to SG and bring in 6’7” Dioubate.

Like where you going but Williams played a lot of the 2 at Tulane. SO you can go taller. YOu could have Jelavic at the 3, Porter and Garrison.

I was going for players with least amount of college experience. If it was absolute age, Jelavic wouldn’t be on there either. JQ is only 17 right now

I like this for going against a team like Nova that won the whole thing with 4 guard line up but the one change I would have is Mo at 67 instead of Noah ( I know you were going for all combo guys) but to me you could go at teams that are smaller with that lineup.

The good luck scoring lineup is what I would like to see. Four of the five are for sure no doubt dogs. And the fifth, Williams, is said to be a really good defender.

Lots of good lineup rotations here thanks to the depth Pope built up with this roster.
