Udoh averaged 12.4 points, 14.3 boards and 4.7 blocks per game last season. His scoring pretty much comes from the fact he's usually playing much shorter and WAY less athletic "Big" men at the JUCO level. For us he would most likely be a 5-6 point a game guy but still maybe grab 8-10 boards a game with a couple blocks. Assuming he'd be the starting center.
This all being said I have NO damn idea what our starting lineup will look like next year if we land Udoh. We could go a number of directions...
C: Udoh
PF: JOB III
SF: Coleman
SG: Turner
PG: Hickey
With Godfrey, Hammink, Morgan and Stringer being the high energy guys off the bench to push some in place of JOB III, Coleman, Turner and Hickey? Then you have your fillers like Ludwig, Courtney, and Issac?

This is very true. And rather than worried about who starts I think if we are indeed going to play a very high paced, running type of game then backups will be a need.I dont mind having 7 guys deserve starter minutes cause I think having the fresh legs will have everyone playing better.
As much as I would love for some extra spots for next years recruiting class, I think the time to "right the ship" is now, especially with the JC guys. As a few have said Godfrey would love love love to be a 1 and done, and that would be fine with me if he plays that kind of ball next season. Using the JC route is the best way to quickly get a team from point A to point B without leaving yourself no scholarships in the future.

I believe this is probably where we should start, but I would imagine Godfrey getting significant minutes and probably releaving Udoh and moving JOBIII down low. They would definitely be moving those 3 players in and out a good bit.
Having Coleman and Hammink at SF at 6'6" would really give us a pretty tall SEC team no matter if we have Odoh in or JOB and Godfrey.
And I think everyone has wanted to see Turner/Stringer have 1 position to share, with most of the load probably going to turner. It will be interesting if he can play SG rather than the 3 position he has been use to. I think he can even though his first step is a little slow. His height against some undoubtedly smaller players will allow him to give some extra space.
Now Stringer may have to play some backup PG if one of the new guys don't beat him out for PG minutes, but I am not really sure what will happen there. That's a position that Hickey will be playing 33+ min/g I'd have to imagine. He will be a very important piece to the puzzle.
So glad I have my season tickets in and ready to rock the PMAC!
