Title: Lineup Changes??
Post by: ILLINICHIEF on January 31, 2025, 09:31:13 AM
Considering how well we are playing right now, who knows when our Tomi comes back to solidify our team once again to Final Four caliber play, who "deserves" to be in the starting lineup?

KJ - Have too
Rez - Have too
White - We want too
Riley - Offense, kills us on Defense
DGL - NEEDS TOO

Bench

Humrichous spells Rez/Riley
Boswell spells any guard
Davis spells White/Riley
Booth limited to spells to replace Riley

Idk but DGL was a bright spot last night while Humbrickhous was sucking ass and they pulled DGL at the end

Yep. Because, because, because Humbrickhouse is a starter and DGL comes off the bench.

'to'


Play 1st half zones. Keep Morez on the floor in the 1st half instead of on the bench with his 2 fouls. Play Riley at the top of a zone.

Hopefully the staff has an idea how long Ivisic might be out. It could be a while.

We're 6-5 in conference. We've scored 904 and given up 832, a difference of 72.
Toss out the 2 maybe today will be the day wins vs Oregon and tPSU games where we outscored them by 71 and we're at outscoring our opponents by 1 in 9 games.

You should also toss out the 21 point loss to the tortoises.

We're nipping at the heels of Groce's Zips for 3rd in 3 point attempts per game. His elite shooters have been a little bit more eliter than ours and JFG has his Zips in 1st place in the MAC.
Bring Groce back.

Let's go with the starters from the Duck game.
Haven't seen them in a bit.

Plant Humbrickhouse's ass to the bench. It's not a magical cure, but it's a start.

With Ivisic out I'm not sure that we have anyone to put Humrichous on the bench. DGL deserves a shot but we give up too much height.

Hopefully we've just been sick.

Lineup changes took a minute, but I think it is for the best.

Love DGL in there

Johnson should never NOT start again, he has proved himself for sure!

I think with DGL/Boswell/Riley/Ivisic and White we are going to have a decent team again next year.

I think KJ is the only one that leaves from this group actually. Transfer maybe in there who knows.
