That looks about right. My only question would be Oweh swapped for Kriisa or Brea. But for now Oweh is my guess to start as well.Butler

As long as everyone transfers to this level of play it will be nice. I like that bench depth. I can definitely see Garrison starting as well at some point but as long as he gets plenty of PT it won’t matter.Butler

Respectfully ... I reject your implication that Butler was promised that he would "start" as a condition of transferring to U.K. I agree with your literal statement that Butler "wasn't going to come here to not start", but I choose to accept that statement on the premise that Butler knew he was good enough to start and came to U.K. with the determination to work as hard as he could and put forth his best effort, trusting in himself that his best effort would win a starting position. To me, there is a vast difference between those two concepts ... and I don't believe that Coach Pope promised anything to anybody !Not really a surprise. He wasn't going to come here to not start.

But, whatever ... Go 'Cats ! ! !
Thing I like about Oweh's shooting is that it has taken a leap each of the last 3 years. He didn't shoot a ton last year and would sometimes pass up open looks, but wouldn't surprise me if he takes another leap and goes something like 37% on double the attempts.Starting Oweh at SG makes it a defensive dominate team, I just looked and Oweh was 49% shooter and 37% from 3 last year. So that's not going to hurt you much on O and raises your defense in tournament games. I wonder who's the best defender amongst our shooters Brea, Kirisa, Chandler, Perry. My guess would be Brea. I do think we have enough shooters to bury teams and our best defense could be an offense that beats the other team to a hundred.
That reserve 5 has at least 3 elite shooters and a 1-5 that can find the open man. Very dangerousButler

Uh oh. Didn't we just have thsi argument last year? It matters who starts.It probably doesn't matter much who starts on this team. Pope is going to play a lot of people anyways.
I know it was an argument and I was involved in it as well. It wasn’t starting it was usage. The former coach could/would not use his players to best advantage. That particular case was he refused to start two players who were FAR better than the ones who did startUh oh. Didn't we just have thsi argument last year? It matters who starts.
This team is deep and all can shoot. There's no promised starting spot so I can see multiple lineups with playing time for most everyone, especially if they play fast and hard. If you don't produce, you won't play. It's not the same as it's been.Uh oh. Didn't we just have thsi argument last year? It matters who starts.
You just typed a giant paragraph to refute something that was never implied in the first place. Smh.
Tough to beat last years 3 pt shooting. I settle for closeThing I like about Oweh's shooting is that it has taken a leap each of the last 3 years. He didn't shoot a ton last year and would sometimes pass up open looks, but wouldn't surprise me if he takes another leap and goes something like 37% on double the attempts.
This team is going to be the best shooting team we've maybe ever seen here
You know, Wonky ... sometimes we interpret things differently. But, nevertheless ... Go 'Cats !You just typed a giant paragraph to refute something that was never implied in the first place. Smh.
Why ? Brea was the 6th man at Dayton. He only does one thing, shoot 3's. He can't drive to the rim, can create, nothing but shoot. He needs to come off the bench as a offensive spark. By the way, his defense is terrible also. Robinson is the stronger defender, rebounder, better al around offensive player. I would start Kriisa before Brea.I may be in the minority but why not start Brea and make Robinson the 6th man like he was at BYU? He clearly thrived in the role last year.
I tend to agree.Butler

Wear them down with defense on the starting line-up, then stick the daggers in them with the second unit. A deadly formula for opponents.That reserve 5 has at least 3 elite shooters and a 1-5 that can find the open man. Very dangerous
Estonia is 1-23 at Eurovision. That’s a winning percentage of .041.He's [Kriisa] from Estonia. One of the stories about Estonia that some of you might not have heard is there love of singing. They're one of the small Baltic countries who had a great big Soviet-imposed chip on their shoulder. Back in 1988 while everything Russian-controlled was springing free, the country got together to sing patriotic songs. 2,000,000 of them. It took 4 years, but eventually Estonia and the other Baltics broke free. So, when you hear about Kriisa's love for talking s**t, his independent streak has a long background.
That'll teach 'em.Estonia is 1-23 at Eurovision. That’s a winning percentage of .041.
