Intervention Needed
Mismatches will be easier to find for him on the perimeter, as valiantly as he's defended the paint this season.
He's not particularly strong in the paint on either O or D. Some nights/matchups are better than others.

His knee might not give him a choice.

What do you know about his knee? Curious because I have no info
Plato

It's gonna require surgery. And Aly is the type of athlete who needs at least a full offseason to remake himself.

I love the idea of redshirting RMs, but won't happen w/out injuries

I think he'll play too. He might have a tough time cracking the rotation though. At least to start.

Coming home 2 transfers early will help Chandler a ton in getting back in

He could definitely be a difference-maker if he can get back.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:06pm
He won’t be better than the experienced guys next year.
Bluforever
Mar 18, 12:08pm
Probably not. But he will be our best athlete in the backcourt. And our only true PG besides Dallin.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:15pm
Huh? He’s NEVER played PG. you’re asking too much.
Bluforever
Mar 18, 12:21pm
He actually did a lot of it in AAU.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:25pm
He was PG is HS too. Primary ball handler, etc.

Baker won’t start over Richie. Richie is too good at both ends.

I think Richie's more likely to start over Noah at the 3 than Baker at the 2. Baker's a shooter, scorer & ball-handler.
SinkingQuffa

Noah will not start at the 3. That would be an awful defensive team.
Plato
Mar 18, 12:03pm
Couldn't disagree more.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:04pm
What have you seen this year that makes you think Noah can regularly guard 3s?
dwhitebud
Mar 18, 12:08pm
His lateral quickness is very good for 6'11. His lack of explosiveness limits him in the paint, though.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:10pm
Sure, but all that said I think Noah is pretty exclusively a 4.
dwhitebud
Mar 18, 12:18pm
He's actually not an ideal 4. It's one of our biggest personnel weaknesses headed into the Dance.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:22pm
Give me one good reason.
dwhitebud
Mar 18, 12:38pm
Noah & Marcus both have 3-4 versatility to them, but only one is good at the rim
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:45pm
Just bookmark this and we'll quit arguing.
dwhitebud
Mar 18, 12:54pm
Fair enough.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:58pm
Noah is a 4 and that’s where he will play.

If Pope doesn't think he's a 4 or 5 next year, he doesn't get offered a 5th yr
Plato
Mar 18, 12:43pm
Or, another take: Pope first talked about fighting for Noah's waiver late last season

Redshirt Aly?? What?
coug719
Mar 18, 12:09pm
If we all loved each other the way SQ loves the redshirt concept, we'd all have
Mitty
Mar 18, 12:10pm
Or the guys who have yet to play. If I only read him, I’d think Adams would win
Bluforever
Mar 18, 12:16pm
Hyperbole aside, you don't wish we had a true 4 to lean on in the paint headed into the Dance?
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:20pm
Well Fous is more or less a 4 in the paint. He just doesn’t have skills to go
Bluforever
Mar 18, 12:26pm
Position-competence is of course more about defense than offense. I know they tried to slim & condition Fouss
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 12:37pm
Forgot Davis isn't mission-bound. It'll be interesting where he fits, cuz he does have immediate-play written on him.
SinkingQuffa
Mar 18, 1:44pm
Here's what I think if Marcus is here...
