Possible rotation if we can land Jalen Shelley, who is visiting:
PG: Warren/Reece
SG: Haggerty/Archie
SF: Shelley/Transfer
PF: Mgbako/Phillips
C: Clemence/Vinson
Depth: Mundey, Green, Walls, McDermott, Irving
What a team that would be

Need someone to sell me on Shelley being a starter level player in the SEC.

He was a top 50 recruit in the country out of high school with offers from UH, Tech, Bama, Louisville, and Arkansas. Played very limited minutes at USC his freshman year, then went to LMU last season. Played well in games against tourney teams like St. Marys, Santa Clara, and SLU. Very athletic point forward for them who was really good at taking it to the rim. Vandy and UVA are after him right now too.

Peckerwood is an ethnic slur against whites like "cracker". I think you're thinking of peckerhead.

He'll come off the bench for us, not starter.

Bucky has made a believer out of me. These may or may not be the starters and backups. He will get the most of the players he has. If the players play his style, and make 3 pointers they will be on the court. That has to be enticing for them, and the of corse the money.

I'm sure BJ Holmes has been called many things but peckerwood is probably a first

How bad do you have to be to shoot 47% from three and only score 10 ppg at Pine Bluff? Before playing at PB he played at a school called Limestone


Bad enough to score 22 vs Vandy.

This is getting extremely interesting . Can't wait to see if the depth is what I think it is.

This is a great get. Know someone in his family up here in Little Elm. NIL aside they are pumped to have him back in state. He's gonna be a great player for us.

well I'd presume 'decade' would be comp to standard of:

Caruso
House
JJones
TDavis
Gilder
Hogg
Trocha

currently prob a bit deeper, maybe similar/more firepower on paper if we can put it together, tho 3 seed would be an incred accomplishment for our roster

It depends on what lineup we are rolling out on that particular night, but he's more likely to be a starter than not, and he's definitely viewed as a major piece for us.

I'll be quite surprised if he's not top 5 in minutes for us regardless of how we divvy up starts. We love his defense, versatility, playmaking and slashing ability, and think he'll be a decent shooter.

He was a high priority target to fill what we identified as a "major need" hole on the roster. A few on here seem to be underestimating how bad we wanted him and what we think his impact will be. Critical piece for us.

He most definitely wasn't recruited as a bench piece.
