I don't see McMahon putting the offense in the hands of a true Freshman. Or at least wanting to do so. He talked all last offseason about needing to "get older". So it's hard to see him reversing course.

My post was mostly a joke, as I don’t foresee McMahon giving the keys to a true freshman. I agree with you. It should be stated though, that if we lose Cook, givens should be given the keys IMO.

This season Williams started at PG out of necessity with Cook ineligible. Once Cook became eligible he almost immediately became the starting PG and focal point of the offense. And once he was injured/suspended, Hannibal was given the PG/facilitator role (along with Wright at times)

Come on Alt. You and I both know Williams should have never been thrust into the starting PG role. From the start of the year I made it overwhelmingly clear that Hannibal should be the starting PG, which was met with ample disdain. Look who ended up being right

Regardless, the conclusion from Mike not working out at PG should NOT be that he failed because he was young. He was playing out of position for fricks sakes. To this day I don’t understand the thought process behind Mike running PG at the start of the year. McMahon loves experience and Hannibal had plenty and is ACTUALLY a PG.

Young guards can succeed in the SEC. Look at Hubbard. An undersized three star freshman torched the SEC this year and led State to a tournament berth. Givens can succeed. Mike would have played better as the 2 guard from the start of the year. Age certainly helps, but freshman in this era aren’t incapable.
