Dispelling the Carl Hall rumors

[choida]

people with less posts get less respect from "older" folk, just the way it is...but at the end of the day most of us are all Shocker fans, and that's what matters.

The problem with this hierarchy is that you never know who may appear to be a "newbie" with fewer posts, but is actually a longtime poster but may have switched user names. Just sayin...

Who starts in the backcourt?

[Shox21]

Did I dream this or did Carl actually not like starting -- thought he was more effective coming off the bench. I guess we wait and see what the coaching staff wants next year. Maybe the different mix of new post-type players we will have will have bearing on whether he starts or subs.

who starts, who finishes, who cares, as long as we win...

All that matters right now is that he will be playing... most likely with a purpose and mission...

You didn't dream it, though I think the context to that statement had to do with both he and Stutz being close-to-the-basket players and with both starting neither one had a lot of room to work inside.

So Hall comes off the bench again this year because of Ehimen :)

Ok. My "glass half empty" just got a little fuller.

My glass half full is starting to look like something might spill out over the top.

Yes indeed. Very good news.

So the starting front line looks like this?

Orupke
Hall
Early

Who starts in the backcourt?

I could see the front line being Hall, White, Early.

You know DWill is starting, but don't know where. My leading two guesses would be DWill/Wiggins or Amrstead/DWill - in no particular order. It's going to depend on how the team comes together under a lot of scenarios they will run in practice - and how the chemistry works best. It's good to hve enough talent that who starts is as dependent on chemistry as talent.

I wouldn't want to be the person to tell FVV that he wasn't starting.

I wouldn't want to be the person to tell FVV that he wasn't starting.

I would love to be that person. That would mean I would be making about $1.5 mil per year. I could make that work.

[pinstripers]

I expect we have a dozen guys promised a chance to start.

[shockmonster]

Carl is good to go for 1 more year! It's a great day!

Swiltar71=Coach Marshall

[Rocky Mountain Shock]

Good call Swiltar71! And good call NCAA!

[another shocker]

Armstead and Williams?

Orupke
Hall
Early
Williams
Armstead..

.. looks okay to me. Bench won't.miss.a.beat.

[all valley]

Good news! Hall is a beast.
