Would love to see Redding play, but those transfer rules get in the way. Anyone have any insider info on how him and Jones are since they can at least practice with the team

My lineup as well. Might commit a few dumb head shaking turnovers, but this unit is the best offensively and pretty good defensively

Whatever the lineup, you must have Dalton to start and play a lot, otherwise the turnover record might not be broken (if it hasn't already).

At one point in the season I wondered if Dalton was hitting the water pipe again.

His passing the last few games has been atrocious for a college player and he is capable of much better than that. Yes, he had a hurt ankle but don't know if you can keep blaming everything on that.

I really hope we see Naughton a bunch tonight

looking at our season stats (which are kind of depressing), he is tied for the team lead in offensive rebounds despite averaging just the 8th most minutes per game

McManamen plays 33 minutes per game and has a whopping 12 total offensive boards all year. 231 freaking 3-pt shots attempted despite making just 32% of them. We will be so much better without him next year

something that also stands out to me, Adams played just 14 minutes per game this season. About 90 seconds more per game than Cody Kelley

reminds me of those old Guinness commercials: BRILLIANT!

But here's the scary thing: They might be doing the best they can.

Whatever the starting lineup is, it will be the stupidest possible one according Wyonation.

lol! No. He could try starting the best players for once. Something he literally hasn't done all year.

Starting lineups are meaningless. All about minutes which could have been better allocated

Leib 17 min, Macman 19, Swede 17. Lower end for all of them. That went a long way for the win, IMO.

starting lineups directly impact how teams start games, which we saw vs AF

James started tonight and boom....

certainly also helps to manage minutes better than we did during the regular season, which you also saw with McManamen playing limited minutes and the team doing much better
