Who do you consider your top 4 players?

You serious, Clark?

I’m sure HCGM can relate to this…

(a) - Serious practice might be second semester, but I don't know
(b) - I'm guessing November, 2017

If we are talking about McDuffie..........

either my meter is off or Aargh is uneducated regarding meniscus surgery. It's not like ACL or MCL ligament surgery. He'll be ready before practice starts if they get on it soon. He can walk right away and running isn't far behind so strength is maintained. He should be ready for practice before October practice.

He was talking about Keyser.

If Shaq keeps draining 18 footers and 3 pointers, he might move into more of these lists. Specially if he can get friendly with some of these officials that just see the biggest guy and call the foul.

We don't need anyone else jacking up 3s. We need somebody getting layups, drawing fouls and getting offensive rebounds down low.

I am not arguing that, but if he is even a hint of a threat to pick and pop instead of just a pick and roll every time, it will make both more effective. I don't want him spending a lot of time out there either, but if he shot one or two every couple of games and hit 30-35%, they wouldn't be able to just dive back into the lane to defend him every time. He could've just been shooting them because they were exhibition games, but HC3G has used pick and pop big men with pretty good success in the past.

Thanks for the responses thus far guys. In reviewing the threads on all of the team boards, you and Missouri State seem to be the most confident in your rosters overall. Several schools (including my own) struggle to come up with a third guy let alone a 4th.

I'm going to give all of the team boards until next week sometime to finish providing submissions and then tally all of the players mentioned and put them into our power rankings app at MVCTalk for anyone registered there to rank the Top 40 as they see fit. Here is a link to the master thread on MVCTalk that has links to the other 9 Valley team boards where I asked the question if you want to see who they're talking about in their Top 4 -- a little preseason reconnaissance:
