Pumped after yesterday and just going over roster possibilities..
My dream scenario..
We don’t need Gordon bc although he’s not the same type of player and probably not as good every post player returns next year plus it’s like we get a new recruit in Mitchell Smith.. So our 13 scholarships
PG Williams (Juco), Pinson
SG Watson, Pickett
CG Geist
SF Santos, CVL
PF Porter, Puryear, Smith
C Tilmon, Nikko
that leaves 1 open scholly.. It won’t help us next year i don’t think... But if you can land Jordan Goodwin you do it.
That roster is good enough next year as long as Williams can run the point successfully
If Smith moves on you find a grad transfer to help out our Guard situation to find shooting/scoring
The following year you are set up to kick some major ass
PG Williams, Pinson, McKinney
SG Goodwin, Watson
SF Santos, Pickett, Hargraves
PF Porter, Smith, Liddell
C Tilmon, Okoro
Note: Jeremiah and Jontay could easily be gone and probably likely. Put Mark Smith on this roster if he leaves Illinois and goes Juco and slide Santos to the 4.
Yes.. I said i was bored.. Just so exciting to have a reason to think about our basketball program again.
