Beo and Leifson... That isn't depth IMO...

Haws, Emery, Bryant start.... Rose if he can be healthy is the only real backup for 3 positions.

Beo and Leifson might be good contributors some day but they aren't ready to do much of anything this year IMO.

We finally have some real depth. Seems like the last couple years we have been

tbh I don't see hardly any depth 1-3 with the exception of Rose.

10/24/16 9:51pm

Depth is dependent on rose and bryant. If they are healthy, i love our depth

I'd be shocked if Bryant doesn't play against Princeton

He should play. How much and at what level is not so clear.

rose, haws, emery, and bryant aren't good enough?

This is what I'm talking about, but I'm not up to speed, is there injury or

yeah, bryant tweaked his miniscus and rose is battling ankle issues, but

See, that's 4 starters, and no backups. So, no depth

You know LJ Rose hasn't played a D1 game in 2 years and is currently hurt right?

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 10:02pm

Dang, I was planning on the offense flowing through him. Oh well

Bob Vance

10/24/16 10:05pm

Not true. He played a couple games last year.

riboflavin

10/24/16 10:07pm

Ok, more accurately has played 27 minutes of D1 since Feb 2015 with 3 injuries

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 10:11pm

Can't bank on 30 minutes from each of them every game. 2 are currently injured

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 10:00pm

Maybe Rose abandons the run and gun, maybe he goes big. I think 8 deep is

Man I hope so. If CK comes in healthy and top 4 posts are healthy, that is a

I guess I don't see how we can say guard depth is spotty

Bob Vance

10/24/16 10:13pm

Beo and Leifson... That isn't depth IMO...

thebruce

10/24/16 10:29pm

I would think Guinn will be ahead of both in the rotation...

thebruce

10/24/16 10:30pm

Maybe this helps

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 10:32pm

Fair enough. But these are at least solid building blocks

Bob Vance

10/24/16 10:35pm

No question about it! A rare collection of talent and combo guard skillsets

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 10:58pm

You don't need 30 from each of them each game. Only two guards avg. 30

riboflavin

10/24/16 10:05pm

I don't mind the high energy that Guinn has shown in practice or the smarts and

BYUheaven

10/24/16 10:10pm

Was just shorthand math. 120 minutes from 3 guard spots, and we have 4 guys who

10/24/16 10:13pm

BYU is one injury away from a former walk-on getting major minutes in the

ldssdl

10/24/16 10:38pm

That's the problem... We are talking depth and you just named 3 starters

thebruce

10/24/16 10:08pm

These 4 aren't all going to start together when you also have Mika, Dastrup,

Bob Vance

10/24/16 10:16pm

I said 3 would start. The 4th has a nasty injury history.

thebruce

10/24/16 10:25pm

It looks inevitable this year will still see major minutes logged by lightly

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 9:57pm

What do you predict in first 8 rotation?

Bob Vance

10/24/16 10:04pm

Is Childs not ready? Seems like he could be #8 maybe 9ish

Stucoug83

10/24/16 10:06pm

Yeah, dumb oversight. I mixed up the names. Fixed it

Bob Vance

10/24/16 10:07pm

I don't know much, so i wouldn't have picked up on it.

Stucoug83

10/24/16 10:10pm

Yeah health permitting the 6 top 100 players, plus Davis and Bryant are top 8

wisconsincougs

10/24/16 10:14pm

I thought the same thing preseason last year.
