Usually there are a couple of players we all want to watch to see how they're doing and how they're improving.
This year there are about 10.
Actually that may be even somewhat conservative. I am counting 12 players on the Men's squad that I want to see:
6 Returners (alphabetically):
Aaron Ellis - What's his body looking like and is he ready to become a PTP'er?
Grahah Hatch - Will the sharp-shooter finally be sharp?
Toure' Murry - How will is adjusted shooting stroke look and how will it hold up in a game-type situation.
David Kyles - Has the 6-inches between the ears caught up with the scary athleticism David can bring to the floor.
J.T. Durley - Will J.T. finally be a lean, mean, fighting machine?
Garrett Stutz - Has the Big Boy started to morph into a Big Bad Boy so he can put some of his skills to good use?
5 Newcomers: Kenny Manigualt, Jerome Hamilton, Demetric Williams, Tyler Richardson and Gabe Blair. Will they live up to and/or exceed expectations?
About the only players I didn't list were Clevin Hannah who I expect good things from and Mason Felter and Bryce Mayes who are walk-ons.
On top of that the Women's team has 8 newcomers, including an incoming freshman (6'2" Jazimen Gordon) who might take a shot at dunking. Also, I want to see how our best returning athlete, Haleigh Lankster, is progessing after a solid and productive Freshman year.
So I got a list of 20 players I am looking forward to seeing.
