Vince
- Thread starter Moose
- Start date
Ok strong word, but I liked him as a backup and thoroght he’d be a niece piece to improve in that role.
For all those panicking about the roster turnover, the only guys who left who were big contributors were: RJ (likey
NBA draft), and Sim (landed stronger players). The rest graduated or played support roles. This roster needed rebuilding and that is being done. Rick doesn’t have a million years and wants to win a NC. So does everybody. Remember the goal.

I can't get behind the idea of Prey as a 5
Could be, but I see how Mitchell directly impacts Vince’s role. Really hard for 5 guys in the front court to be part of a meaningful rotation at the 4/5.

Would we rather have a backup front court of Prey/Vince or Mitchell/Prey? I think it depends on how confident we are in Prey to be the lone backup 5

It's college ball. Get into a track meet and Mitchell can give a few minutes there. I think he's first guy in for both the 4 and the 5.
Expect Prey to get good minutes there as well.
Definitely the latter. And I am sure there will be a more depth center to replace Maker.
Take that back.
Correct he’s a 4 or even a stretch 3

Prey is great. I just don't see him as a 5.
I want a real true 5 to play next to Zuby because I think Zuby will be even better if he was playing the 4

Except they all are capable of moving feet quickly.
Logen, what did you do to Main Man? Return him unharmed and I will give you 4 pairs of sports goggles and 4 mouthpieces.

If we’re guaranteed to get Zuby for 32 mins per game every single night this is a non issue. Even though I don’t think either can play much 5, we can lean on Mitchell and Prey to eat 8 mins at the 5 when needed.
The major problems arise if Zuby has a high ankle sprain and has to miss a 4 game stretch in early-mid Feb. In that case Mitchell and Prey needing to play 40 mins at the 5 is unsustainable. Might not sound like it, but Vince being able to eat 12-15 mins in a situation like that could go a long way.

You need more than just Prey. Need a third guy in case of foul trouble or injury.

Anthony Glover played center on a team that won at Duke and finished the season with a BET Championship. Prey at a legit 6'10 and with strong defensive skills can give 5 to 10 minutes a game at backup center.
That said, CRP will easily bring in a serviceable backup center to give the production Vince provided last year.
Maker and Vince aren't leaving unless someone of equal talent was coming in.
