Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
Could Diante and Royce play well together, or would each one need the ball too much for the other?

Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
Shouldnt Wes Johnson be included in the possible players or was he more than 5 years out?

Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
Starters:
G Garrett
G Anderson
G Clyburn
F Brackins
F White
Bench:
G Christopherson
G Babb
G McGee
F Ejim
F JVB
F Niang
12th man only in rotation if White/Garrett in foul trouble:
G Lucious (he's not bad, but don't necessarily need another ball handler)
Could see Scotty starting over Jake, too.

Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
G. DG
G. Thug Life
G. Clyburn
F. RW
F. Craig
Bench
Babb
Anderson
Ejim
Niang
Tyrus
Gilstrap
Out of this I think Gilstrap and Jake have more upside than JVB, which is why I left JVB off the list.
“They're very, very hard to guard,” Notre Dame head coach Mike Brey said. “They're really good. And with Niang in the middle kind of wheeling and all those guys spreading you out, they're kind of a nightmare matchup. And they're men. They're really men.” -
Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
I went off of previous play which eliminates almost our whole last years recruiting class, and people are gonna think I'm nuts but:
Start:
G-DG
G Babb
F-Clyburn
F-Brackins
F-White
Reserves:
C- Hamilton
F-Ejim
F- Niang
G/F-Gilstrap
G Korie
G Christopherson
Plenty of scoring in the starters, but good mix of energy guys, rebounding and bench scoring in reserve.
Edit: Due to respect for DG, he has been added.

Korie over Diante makes you nuts.

Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
Wow, looking at the list of available players show how we have been lacking in depth for true post players. Sure we had some really good ones in White and Brackins but after that it gets thin.

Re: What 11 guys would you select from the last 5 years
Start:
1 - Garrett
2 - Scotty
3 - Clyburn
4 - Royce
5 - Brackins
Reserves:
Ejim
McThree
Lucious (Would NEED a second PG)
Babb
Niang
Gilstrap
Fred seems to like his setup of 3 guards and smaller forwards that can shoot.
