I like the roster as it currently projects. If the Corban Collins thing isn't working out, though, I don't think Bridgewater is a fit to replace him because they'd need another PG. The fear is they lose one of their recruits because of some academic issue.
I'd say SG, not PG. We have Hickey and Quarterman to run the point, Stringer the emergency guy there.
Collins was never a PG really, he is just can't dribble with the ball and make good passes/decisions. His future here if he has any is to become a shooter. If we lose Collins, considering Stringer is a senior, I'd love for us to go out and get a guy who can shoot.
Bridgewater wouldn't be a bad add, but in replacing Collins I dont really see the addition there. I think Bridgewater is a better player, but how much would he play with Mickey, Martin, Coleman, JOB III, Odoh...etc...

I see Bridgewater as a lunch pail 3/4.
I think he's a guy who might accept a role as a defender, a screen setter and a garbage basket guy. After looking like his big-time hoops dream has been ripped away when he didn't get to that growth spurt that was going to make him 6'8", if he gets a shot, I think he would be of a mindset of embracing such a role fully.
I'm not saying he's the same player as a Garrett Temple, but I think there would be a similar mindset of showing the appreciation for the opportunity to play SEC basketball by accepting those kinds of "glue" roles.
