Quarterman is 6'5. Go ahead and count him the backup wing it doesnt matter. Stringer was brought in to be PG and now hes a SG at 5'9. And morgan would be fine at the 3 whether starter or not. I mean shite, Carmouche is 6'4 playing the 3 this year. And Martin is 6'9, he is in no way a wing player. He will be in the post. And martin and JOB are both better than Odo so they will be starting.



Height doesn't really matter all that much when picking out guards. Stringer was recruited to be a PG and started for a year at the position. He was pushed out of that role because Hickey is better at the position. Not saying Quartermann can't be moved, but I'm not going to assume that.

Martin is 6'8", but it athletic enough to play the wing. If you look at any film or interviews, you'll see each say he is a 3/4 hybrid forward.

I do agree that JOB and Martin are better than Odo, but he's a great rounder and shot blocker and his presence will help JOB greatly, imo.

Odo will give u a defensive presence and rebounding. That would be huge for this team.
Job comes back (and he should) this will be a top 25 team.

Collins has struggled but hes a freshman. He will improve. I thing hes a SG going forward.

The biggest thing with the incoming fr player will be athleticism. Martin and mickey will get people in the seats. Just watch.

Stringer was pushed out of that position because he isn't a PG. His height made people want to make him a PG, but he is and always was an undersized 2. Now, JJ may have been able to make him into a PG in his system, but he was never going to be one under Big Bird.
