Starters vs Duke?

[Col_Cathcart]

The nice thing about Boswell (in the 9th player spot not as your starting 2 guard) is that we’ve already seen him in that role. The floor for him is pretty established as a guy that’s not going to blow you away, but who also probably isn’t going to kill you in spot minutes. I expect he’ll be a little better than last year which is totally fine for short spells but makes me nervous if we’re counting on him for longer stretches.

As the new season begins...

1.) Gillespie
2.) Abram
3.) Ament
4.) Carey
5.) Okpara

Top Bench guys: Burg, Estrella, Phillips, & Evans. Think Henderson has a chance to eventually get spot minutes as well.

The thing I'll be watching is minute-split between Boswell and Henderson.

It’s my genuine hope that Boswell has been recruited over..

Welp, just saw he’s slated to start at the 2 spot tomorrow. Color me surprised

Do what now?

Edit: I see now in the game notes he is a projected starter.

It’s my genuine hope that Boswell has worked hard since last season and made a big move forward for his sophomore season. Let competition determine playing time

Exactly. If a guy is “recruited over,” he shouldn’t be on the roster. Boswell is on this one, so he’s here to compete.

Maybe Boswell has actally improved. I remember last year when Phillips was an absolute after thought and would make no contribution according to the so called experts on this board. Barnes trusts defenders and it's likely he's ahead of the newcomers in that category.

Estrella gonna be big for us this year

 

[CamVol8]

I’m actually surprised Carey starts over Estrella or Phillips, and i’m SHOCKED that Boswell is starting at the 2 it’s probably Barnes just messing with some lineups tho (hopefully)
