Since there isn't much else to talk about at this point...and because we are all griping about the basketball prowess (or lack thereof) of Team USA (minus Ron, of course), I wondered what a Gregg Marshall team could look like for a competition like this.
First, let me put out there that this would NEVER happen that a Shocker all-star squad could represent Team USA for something like the Pan-Am Games. Maybe the World University Games at some point, but not Pan-Am. That said, when has the low probability of something really happening ever stopped message board discussion?
A couple guidelines:
Let's say that we would make this list on the assumption that we would play with this roster tomorrow. So....if you would like to include him, you would take age 30-ish PJ, not college-age PJ.
Let's also say that a foreigner would be ineligible for this squad. That excludes Orupke, Wiggins, Lufile, Nurger, etc. Not saying any of these guys would be on the team anyway, but I just want to to throw in that wrinkle as well.
So....what does your Marshall-era Shocker Team USA 12-man roster look like? I bet we could put a roster together that could win a medal.
AND.......GO!
