so we got 4 of the local 804 guys and only 1 is starting?

always tough during offseason with so much unknown to project starters and minutes (though we all play the game , including myself)

I think only Shulga and Wheeler are 100% starters at this junction and seeing 25-32 minutes a game - the rest will be decided in the BDC and in our trip to Greece.

I think 10 guys will see action in OOC (8 minute minimum) and then when conference play begins the rotation will be 8 or 9.
time will tell (and yes I will continue to speculate like my fellow posters)

go rams

They may be a bit older, but Belle, Patrick, and Billups will all be freshmen.

Let’s get Patrick signed as soon as his current season is over. This freshman needs to be on the floor for the Rams!

Look, wereI Burton I would have done the same. ur is very lucky that he decided to come back to a team that everyone knew wasnt going to be very good. He likely has graduated. He played four years.

He is moving on. No harm in that. I wish him well. The kid can ball. Sadly his teammates weren't up to his level. I would have liked to see him at Marquette with SS. With Proser staying in the draft he would have fit nicely at the wing.

Thanks for your information, but I question why you need to respond to this person/self-serving instigator Leaving at that.

I apologize, sir, for not thinking about you nearly as much as you must think about me.

MHP is one game from elimination. Hoping they pull it off but their season will likely be over on Saturday.

Not sure I was included in your post as I didnt mention you. So maybe you have me on the brain.

Those are some Bonesian 3s. No wasted effort and no particular concern about how deep they are. Square up and shoot!

Great balance also and quick release also.

We will definitely not be hurting for shooting this coming season.

We absolutely might. Who is a proven shooter (aside from the not-yet-but-soon-to-be-signed freshman?

Matt Shulga? But I agree with your take

Shulga shot 36% from 3. Bairstow shot 38%. They can shoot. At GDub Bamisile was almost a 36% 3 pt shooter.

I think Nelson can shoot. As a freshman he shot 30% but he is gonna get better looks. Hopefully Zeb will get good looks and knock them down. And of course Patrick who is a shooter. Overall, more shooters. Give them some space and bang! I say this in hopes. Ha!

Bingo ... and, please, let me add, I'll try harder in the future to be less self-centered and more in tune with other's feelings. It's not all about me.

Max shot 36% on ~4 attempts last year. Bairstow shot 39% last year but 13% the year before, neither time with as much as 2.5 attempts. Both were good last year, but to me neither provide really robust support for the "we will not be hurting for shooting next year" declaration.
