Is also a pretty good Defender. A real problem for CMM is the number of minutes available. He has 2 returning starters - Ward & Fountain, 2 Portal starters - Carter & Sears, 3 highly rated FR, RS FR Chest, plus Reed, Williams, etc.

Unless one of the FR is going to RS, then CMM is running out of minutes. Before Stewart and Collins got hurt last season, it seemed like at times his desire to spread minutes resulted in some odd combos on the court that didn't produce great results.

I think that Vyctorius Miller and Curtis Givens are going to be allowed to compete for minutes with Carter and Sears more than you expect. They are the future and capable of handling things by mid-season. Mike Williams will get his between the 1 and 2.

I suspect that Carter may not have been pursued if Miller decommitted from Oregon a few weeks earlier. But couldn't pass him up once he became available, obviously.

I imagine we start seeing a lot more 3 guard lineups as well: Sears, Williams, and Carter with the freshman rotating in.
If I had to guess I imagine a Robert Miller red-shirt is the most likely. I just can't see him getting many meaningful minutes, but if he is being expected to do we really need him Fountain and Reed?

I still think they take both. 2 different styles. They could probably both play on the floor together. You have to have elite guards in college basketball. Miller might just be that as a scorer/shooter.
