this smells like a thread that could use a poll...

for the op, I am going to go with Georges. But one guy that wouldn't surprise me with contribution (or I'm hoping for anyway) is okoro. All reports describe him as a tenacious player, and he seems physically ready to play college ball.

Yeah, I think it will be Georges.

Lucious is going to play 28 - 35 minutes/game. With Bubu there, I don't see many minutes for Naz at the point.

Clyburn and Babb will be out there for the majority of the time, too, with McGee taking most of the other minutes.

Ejim, Gibson and Booker down low. That's not many fouls to give, and a lot of minutes to spread out.

I think all the freshman will see some PT, but Georges has the most opportunity.

Georges, only because he's the most college ready. If Naz beats out Bubu, then Naz will backup Korie.

SDW could play a few minutes in some blowout games, but well need him next year. Same will Kerwin.

Okoro might not contribute as much as Niang, but i think he'll be a pleasant surprise. Nobody ever talks about SDW but I'm actually really excited about him.

I think Okoro is going to get minutes based on hard work. I think when you look at the stat line, Niang is going to look like our top freshman, but Okoro is going to be the player that you want there because of his effort.
