Selling him as a starter. That’s keeping us in it

He's not starting over Mays or Smart next year.

I think he could be part of a 4 man rotation at guard though.

Wade is promising to start him next to Smart and Mays some games

He would start in place of Taylor.

So:

C - ?
PF - Watford
SF - Quinones
SG - Mays
PG - Smart

Quinones would hang around the corners for 3s basically

That sounds like a better offensive lineup if Q’s 3 point shooting translates to next level, but a downgrade defensively.

I’d also be surprised to see both Days and Williams come off the bench again and neither get to start.

Would like to see us have a chance to make it work though.

I expect to see a pretty well distributed amount of playing time. Days certainly needs to play more than he did late season.

Effectively Williams is a 5 right now, he's just a short 5. I would imagine they want to pair a true big with Watford if they can in the starting lineup, however if they cant manage that I would see Watford/Williams out there.

The lineup could be very interesting to see next year. I really want Quinones to get another lock down shooter to add along with Hyatt. I’m really excited for Hyatt coming in. We have to remember not only are we adding Bishop, and Manning, but also Cooper and Hyatt. Pairing that up with Watford, Quinones, and another guy and we should be a top tier SEC team again.

1. Smart
2. Mays
3. Taylor
4. Watford
5. Sy

Bench- Days
Bench- Manning
Bench- Bishop
Bench- Quinones
Bench- Williams
Bench- Cooper
Bench- Hyatt

This lineup would be nasty if we land Q, Watford, and Sy.

That's the starting line up I would expect.

Yeah, if we land those 3, Wade will play with the lineup a lot in the beginning. It wouldn't surprise me to say Days or Williams start. I think the 4 and the 5 could change. I feel confident that Smart, Mays, and Taylor will all start.

Having Watford, Quinones and Sy really change the perception of next year's team. It's not just a tournament team, but another one that could make a serious run in it.

IMO it would be deeper than this past year's team, maybe not necessarily have the same star power though.

Man, do you realize how good this team could be next year w/a middle man even 75 % as KW ? What a lure for a big man to come play on a team that has a chance to win it all , as I think LSU may have. Of course , that's assuming the 3 (M,S,W) come back. :rimshot:

It would be really nice to land Blackshear from Va tech. He would complete the missing piece.

1. Smart
2. Mays
3. Taylor
4. Watford
5. Blackshear

Bench- Cooper
Bench- Hyatt
Bench- Quinnones
Bench- Sy
Bench- Days
Bench- Williams
Bench- Manning
Bench- Bishop
Walk On- Graves
Walk On- Reese

That would be downright nasty.

Now you’re just getting greedy. Don’t think you could get Sy and Blackshear, as both would be looking to start.

Haha, you are right. I was getting a bit greedy. It would be nice to land 2 bigs. I guess we will see what happens.
