Alex Lomax 5'11 4* PG 2018 to Memphis

[wufan]

Off topic, but I see the line-up kinda like this to tart the season:

Lomax, Shamet, Reaves, McDuffie, one of the bigs.

SHJ, Stevenson/Keyser, RBrown off the bench along with another big.

I think Moore has tons of potential, but won’t be game ready next season.

Pretty much posted the same three guard line up a couple days ago with the
understanding MM would have the four spot locked up. I think ES will be the
first guard off the bench because of high BBIQ and versatility. I left out Jones.
I think Jones is fully capable athletically, in fact, outstanding athleticism and
quickness and would be a STAR for a lot of un ranked teams. I just don't think,
right now, he understands the TEAM game and HIS role with so many good
players around him. The potential is there but not until the light comes on and
he can demonstrate it against AAC competition. As for center we will have
three with none being a significant offensive threat but should be good
rebounders and defenders. LS, AR and MM should bare the load offensively.
We will need MM to play more like CE.

I like that lineup.

Both will start at least by conference play. Guarantee it. You can flame me all you want if I’m wrong.

100%. Might throw Moore in there as well.

[pinstripers]

Take Reaves's spot?

Anyone know if AL and maybe a couple team mates will be at the game tonight ?

Probably not... looks like AL's team plays Overton tonight.

Is this assuming we have our underclassmen returning?

So Lomax went off tonight (senior night), 32 pts, 10 rbs, 11ast. And, his team won by almost 100 points (118-22). Who the heck were they playing? Lol

Damn. The one highlight of my playing career that survived and you found it.

The Russian judge gave you a 9.5 on the face plant. But you did stick the landing.

Alex has been named a finalist for his third consecutive Tennessee Mr. Basketball award in the AAA class. Competition will be Tyler Harris (unsigned) and Mark Freeman (LIU-Brooklyn).

Surprises me a bit that Harris still hasn’t committed.

[ShockerDropOut]

Does Tubby have to land him to have any hope of keeping his job?

I don't think there's going to be a way to keep Lomax off the court next year.

If Midtgaard's only offensive contribution is to set screens for Lomax, he will earn his minutes.

[pinstripers]

ALo starts day 1, I think.

[shoxplode]

Reminds me a little of Joe Ragland with the flash of Fridge Holman.
