Actually, I really like SS coming of the bench for 15-20 minutes. As stated earlier he is the smartest post player, sets great screens, and is probably the most physical. He should get a good amount of minutes next year. He is a senior after all.

SS could start and give us good minutes....but by the time the season ends.......we will have three capable big guys....Peoria Toyota ScionComment

Are you including AT in these 3? What is the possibility that by the end of the season that AT and WE are capable 4s?"Let's make some noise".Comment

No one said he would be the best but right now he is the most experenced and most consistent post player we have. He also brings teamwork, work ethic, system knowledge and leadership which I haven't seen from any of the other's! He should be a captain and starter based on all of above and what I said earlier in this thread about AT at the 4. He's not going to be a star and how much time he plays would depend. One thing for sure is he will be a team leader both on and off the court! Something we didn't have this last year!Originally posted by bu fan 9 View PostComment

The hard work over the summer will determine who is going to be our post starter; if our inside players are willing to work as hard as JC did to improve themselves then we will have a very good team as I believe we have plenty of outstanding guards and our season will be determined by how good our inside players help this team .Comment

DC will start next year..JL will give him every opportunity to win and keep the starting job.
Singh is a given...he will give us all he has and has many "intangibles". I don't think he has near the upside as Collins but both are Seniors so that "upside" most develop or blossom quickly.
Thompson will NOT start IMO. JL will ease him in slowly IMO. It will be fun to watch him develop but I just can't see him starting as a freshman. The QB theory was dead on....
We will probably see alot of Center by committee next year. Get 20 and 10 from 3 guys with 15 fouls to give.Comment

OK, there buddy, theres 9 votes for SS, but its not as you say (for the best POST player) its who will be the best BIG Man? Read the thread ?! I gave reasons for Sam as being the best BIG Man because of all I said he brings to the team. (player, teamwork, work ethic, system knowledge and leadership!)

You got me thinking and I can not recall, has JL ever "eased" anyone into the starting lineup? Not saying it is a bad strategy, seems to be a great idea.Originally posted by dogsrus View Post
As far as I recall, the most overall talented 5 generally start all year (except due to injury). Yes, JJ became a starter during in the S16 year, but he was not a new guy and had been a starter in previous years (when he perhaps needed to be "eased" instead of baptism by fire)Comment

IIRC, POB was a starter from the get-go. I believe Thompson will be on the floor to start in the opener.Originally posted by ph View PostComment
