Nebraska finished 12-19 last year, 6-12 in the Big 10.

We could actually play them twice in a span of about 10 days, as they are also in the Disney World Tournament.

RE: St. Joe's, they went 11-20, 4-14 in the A10.

I think this year is gonna be fun to watch. we have an athletic team that has proven scorers.This is my guess as starters, and the bench players will get tons of mins too. I think we will be running N gunnin this year.
Starters:
G- Ponds
G- LoVett
F- Ahmed
F- Clark
C-Owens

Bench:
G- Simon
G/F- Wilson
F- Yakwe
G- Simon
G- Moose
F/C- Alli
 
Anyone have a handle on the Star rankings of our roster?
I know Wilson is listed as 4-star.

This is lineup I would like to see. Would not be surprised if Yakwe starts over Owens however.

These are guesses, but I'd say Ponds, Lovett, Simon, Sid, Yakwe, and Owens were probably four stars. Ponds maybe 5-star in the last rankings since he always seemed to play well in summer and big games.

Clark three star
Mussini equivalent of three star

Ahmed two star coming out of high school. Four star if they rank juco

Alibegovic one or two star equivalent

I think Owens bench, at least at first, to preserve him and see how he responds to committing fouls this season. But I can see Clark at center between Simon and Ahmed. Clark then gets to shift to PF as bench comes in. I'm not sure Clark or Ahmed see much of their natural positions this season, assuming SF is really the most natural position for either. But Yakwe development would help that a lot.

Yeah I can see that but that would be a real small team.
