Go read Jeff Greer's article on The Athletic if you have a subscription. It gives good insight into the Pack Line defense Mack wants to run.
In a typical year, Mack likes to have his guys stay patient and force passes into the post. Its not about forcing turnovers. But we are caught in a place where we have a mix of old Rick full court press players and some patchwork transfers. Normally we won't start two big guys down low, but personnel dictates we have to play different
Williams
Enoch
Nwora
Williamson
Perry
Sutton, Kimble, and Nickelberry will round out our 8 man rotation. It may be too late to think DJ can miss the whole first semester and jump into ACC play.
Perry has to be the guy at point. He has played 2 ACC seasons and is far more athletic than Fresh. Fresh needs to be a guy that can steady us in the 2nd unit with points. He just is not fast and lacks the ball handling skills to run point for an elite team. Darius hasn't proven he can, but has shown flashes that he can be the guy.
