Any idea who the starters will be for tonights game?

**gocubs2118** · 11-03-2006, 07:51 AM

Going off of yesterday's practice, I would say:
PG; Dodie Dunson
SG: Corey McIntosh
SF: Rashon Clark
PF: Wesley Johnson (this guy is going to be a STUD)
C: Jiri Hubalek

If you listened to McD's press conference on Cyclones.com, he said he feels more comfortable with Dodie at the 2 right now because of his shooting.

He also said Wesley was a better fit for the 3, but because we're so thin up front with Jiri's coming suspension and Jessan being hurt, we needed him to step in and play there.

I think in a month, we're going to see a dramatically different starting lineup.

Yep. In a month there will be a lot of players and more depth. Our line-ups will probably look like this.

PG Mcintosh/Taylor
SG Taylor/Dunson/Jacobson
SF Clark/ W. Johnson
PF Hubalek/C Johnson/W Johnson
C Marsden/Hubalek

I thought that Cory Johnson was going to be able to come in and help at the PF position. Is he not doing well in practice or something?

**timc243** · 11-03-2006, 08:51 AM

I'm guessing Wesley is just that good. After watching him this summer he is an amazing athlete. This guy is gonna be good. Hopefully he doesn't choke and make me look like an a** tonight.

I think we'll see him tonight but he just didn't get the start.

as far as we know it's just one game for Taylor.

I agree to a certain extent, but McD talked a lot about Jessan Gray too, and I think we'll see him get some quality minutes.

I agree. I have heard a lot about Gray doing well before the injury. I think we are going to see a revolving door between the 3,4 & 5 spot with the most minutes going to who has the hot hand that night.

Wasn't he suspended indefinitely? Doesn't that mean we won't know how long he is on the bench until McDermott decides that his academic performance has improved enough that he can play again?

**timc243** · 11-03-2006, 03:27 PM

Taylor will be there when we need him. McD imposed this suspension, Not the NCAA. As soon as McD says he has met the standards for the team, he is back.

Does Jiri's suspension include the exhibition games, or can he play in those?
