Let's really go out on the proverbial limb (hopefully minus our handy dandy Stihl) and project the starting lineups for each WAC member.
PTW will forsake the usual warning that this is an exercise for fun, yadda, yadda, yadda.
Starting with Utah State:
* TeNale Roland PG
Marcel Davis will need at least a half a season to make the adjustment necessary before being able to contribute.
* Preston Medlin SG
Might that be whisperings of WAC MVP PTW is hearing?
* Spencer Butterfield WING
PTW Simply loves this young man's game and approach but Danny Berger (if he doesn't redshirt) and Marvin Jean will certainly have a say.Berger is a better long distance shooter and Jean (like Butterfield) possesses an all-around game. Someone will probably come out of this unhappy but do remember that Butterfield can play the two and Medlin the one.
* Kyisean Reed PF
Can KR finally put it together, a package of enormous physical talents alongside a focused mindset? It's his last college rodeo so...
* Jarred Shaw C
He wasn't an offensive focus at Oklahoma State but he will be this coming season -- if he has upgraded that aspect of his game. It's hard to see Jordan Stone as the starter at this point and Matt Lopez isn't eligible until late December but someone will need to provide points here in addition to defending and rebounding.
+++++
If it's Butterfield at the three, he and Reed are on the smallish side but both have the capabilities to board well. Seeing what stage Shaw is at with his game is key to the upside chances for the Aggies.
Did we nail it or miss the obvious?
