Octave, Snoddy, and Nyarko are locks in the starting lineup as
it stands today in my humble opinion.
We can go small with Nyarko at C and probably throw Luster and
T.O in there for our starting 5.
Or we can go "big" with Wight starting at the Center with Nyarko
and Woodard as forwards. The last opening should definitely be a
big man (Sorbel very ideal).

:: Nyarko throws down an alley-oop dunk ::
Wincott: "Y'know, he's used to getting those kind of passes from
high school teammate Bronny James."
Pav: "That's right, Jonny. And you know, Geno Ford knows a thing
or two about scoring the basketball too. He had more points in
high school than, guess who? LeBron James."
All year.

Nobody seems to mention Quin Gorman, who is another forward I
thought was already signed. And has Leon Nahar been totally
written off?

This team could be significantly better than it was last year-
great job by Geno.
If the team does well, I think a good chunk of these guys could
be multiyear players for us.

true, but i love our PbB/color guys.
also, if this year goes well with these new players- its
starting to maybe look like geno struggled during the covid
years (because the extra year and transfer portal arguably
benefited the P5 more than us) and now that things are evening
out, he is competing.

For sure. They have to repeat things because they can't assume
people have watched prior games. It's actually more the road
announcers, who will definitely get to it. We should keep a
tally.

Nyarko seems to be a really easy guy to root for.
Here's a short film about his journey from Ghana and his battles
against malaria:

Worth the four minutes.
Welcome Jeremiah!

Ford sounds really high on Nyarko. I think he'll start for us,
but I expect some growing pains. Looks like Nyarko fouled out of
5 of the 19 games he played this year

Worth noting: Chris Ledlum and Jordan Dingle, whose 2020-21
seasons were canceled, sued the NCAA and sought another year of
eligibility. Earlier this week, that was denied.

Another player whose school shut it down in 2020-21? Alex Sobel.
The COVID stuff is dizzying. He played three full seasons at
Middlebury, a fourth that was shortened by injury (11 gms) and a
fifth at Sacred Heart. AND the season that was canceled.
