    Options Options Options which is what we have. BU has not had depth for quite awhile, this team will be deep and there will be competition at every position. Minutes will be at a premium and that is going to be great. Guys who dont play wont be happy, so hopefully, they will work harder pushing the person ahead of them.

    The depth gives JL the ability to pressure and play 94 feet. But college basketball really requires 8 solid contributions nightly and sometimes to many options makes continuity an issue, but you really can not ever have to many good players pushing other good players.

    I just always will remember MO having options and he constantly played with his lineups and it drove both fans and I think some of his players crazy. One of his best seasons he ever had was they year he only had 8/9 players and he couldnt do anything other then play who he had.

      It will be interesting to see the direction the team will be heading.

      Bradley has lost in the post season the last two years due to the other team having athletic playmakers. A playmaker will make a play when none existed, where as Bradley was just very good at running plays.

      A lineup more consistant with the past two years may be Ruffin, Cole-Scott, Warren, Crouch and a big. But I do not believe that lineup would result in any real post season ssucess

      A potential (If they are as good as the hype) difference making lineup would be Ruffin (or SM), Warren, Wilson, Egolf and (Collins or Austin).

        I'll stick with my Pick-em starting lineup and replace Egolf with Crouch, and go with Collins over Austin (at least to start the season). It will be nice to have guys contribute off the bench and keep everyone fresh! I'm very pleased with the way this roster has been put together by JL and staff!

          I like that lineup, but I can't imagine post-season success without JC.

            In my dream world, I'd have JC being better than last year, but now the team is so good that JC is "just" 6th man of the year. Just as opposing teams get kinda used to BU's starting attack, JC comes in and and completely breaks them.

            Realistically, JC will start and be 2nd in minutes to Ruffin. I just think that the potential of a slasher like Wilson would win more tough games than JC could with his outstanding shooting.

                Is that a typo? You mean March Madness, right
