Look at the 3 new recruits. I think all three of them could play the 2. Two of them are guards and one of them is considered a small forward. They are all long. Over 6'4" or so.
Sure and that's a good thing. But at 190 lbs and judging from the highlight reel, CNO signed Bowen to be a perimeter guy 1st. He's got a great stroke from distance.
On the current roster we are waiting on Stevenson, Reid, and whatever Philon is going to do. Am I missing anyone else?
I would think that means Reid and Stevenson are gone. But not sure
The article I read last week said that Alabama was actively in "negotiations" with the players already on the roster. I wouldn't assume they're leaving just because they haven't said anything yet. The others might still be in negotiations. Still think we keep at least 1 of the other 3.
Thinking Reid may be looking for a draft grade/notes I would assume. Stevenson got his last season if I remember correctly so he may be looking to part ways or check his value.
He been saying all season he's coming back. Him and Oats. Mallett too. Stevenson I don't expect him to be back. I'm waiting to see how oat constructs his roster. Does he want it to be similar like Duke? Duke runs similar style and that's what Oats wants.
I think people vastly overrate the size issue with Duke. Yes they are big but more than anything they are very talented. They have 3 freshman that look to be lottery picks. Those type guys are not growing on trees. I am sure Oats would love that much talent no matter what size they are but we are not gonna be able to recruit like Duke.
Their size def handicapped our guards and their center shutdown the paint. They were bigger better and most importantly more disciplined. Very impressed with them
