25-26 Season

So PG, Sanon, Sellers*, Wilcher, Liotopoulos are 5 guards. Even with Glover at the 3 or the 2/3 all you really have room for is a low-minutes PG, probably.

The 3 you would have Glover, Imran if he comes, and whoever they sign (and they need someone there).

The 4/5 is set with Zuby, Hopkins, Vince, Prey and Maker assuming all return, if not they need a Marillac-type "rebounding machine" to help which would be a good idea anyway.

That's 14.
Rick mentioned Sanon as specifically a wing, think he will see plenty of time next to two guards. Just like Glover though, that opens up other questions about defense and rebounding.
 
Yes but as noted we would have to be as good defensively and thus far I am skeptical. Tho offensive improvement may help offset that, but then you start to look like a more standard team and lose the advantage of doing something at a level most opponents aren't used to.
Agree, you can’t expect to back fill the loss of Scott, Smith and Kadary from defensive standpoint easily. As Rick adds shooting prowess, I feel it may challenging to coach up offensively geared guys like Sanon, hopefully Sellers to the high level of the switching D we enjoyed last season. Imo, it then becomes a process of finding the sweet spot between the two disciplines. Houston was unique this year and not easy to replicate, but reasonably striving for it is the right direction.
 
Since this thread is about next season, figured I'd post this here. On Friday I received an email about a deposit for season tickets for next season. However when I go to my St. John's account it isn't clear whether this is for a full season package or the MSG only package, which I've had the last 2 years. Anyone know?

No clue. I got an email saying NEW season ticket holders can make a deposit for next season.

I'm still waiting to see when I can RENEW my season tickets from last season - full package.

I don't really understand why they'd allow new season ticket holders to make deposits before offering previous season ticket holders. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm calling in the morning to get a direct answer. I just want to renew.
 
If they are redoing the pts or reseating whatever it doesn't really make sense to take renewals yet imo. Would think they need to figure out seating prices at a very minimum and that will definitely depend on how many msg games we have next year

For new holders I totally get taking deposit to kind of figure out what you are working with
 
So

1/2: PG to be named later, Wilcher, another PG to be named later

2/3: Sanon, Sellers, Liotopoulos, Glover

3/4: Hopkins, Ayo, Player to be named later, Imran (?)

4/5: Zuby, Vince, Prey, Maker

Is that what we are projecting? If so I think a strong PG and as close as we can get to Aaron Scott at the wing are important moves
 
We have 8 guys coming back. Have to expect them to all get better, especially the underclassmen. On paper we really should have an outstanding frontcourt.
I have hired Marillac and a Doberman to dog Sim all summer to come back stronger, better attentive to D, a more consistent shooter and improve his handle. He has great opportunity waiting for him, but likely strong competition. Seize the moment Sim & work your tail off and listen to Coach Marillac. 😇

Make it a French Bulldog and we got a deal.
And don’t try to pass John Fanta off as one, I can tell the difference.

I like the strategy we seem to be taking. Aside from landing a starting PG, the other pieces we are involved with are good enough to be starters, but not so good that a dedicated Wilcher wouldn't be able to win that final spot. Like you said, he has to seize the moment.
 
So at this point are we to just assume Prey and Lefty are coming back? There was word that they were here on 1 year loans. Not sure if the situation changed.

I saw one blurb about Prey but never saw anything about Lefty being a loan. All I remember is a blurb about Lefty talking about the value of an education, which led me to believe we have him for another couple years.
 
I'd assume Prey/lefty is back until proven otherwise. I don't know where this one year loan thing came from but it goes against everything ppl with sources say + Rick is saying

Curious if you heard anything. I got the same email and got concerned. MSG plan holder here.

I am an MSG plan holder as well and was told this is for new full season ticket holders only. The MSG plan always comes out after all season tickets are final and can select first come first serve I believe from what is left (although that might change with demand).
