Any speculation out there about current roster portal risk now that PJay has committed??
Whitt?
Why? We only have 2 guards with any experience in our system and he's one of them. Remember the jump JP made this year? Expecting something similar for Whitt.

What's crazy to me is we have 9 guys with 2 years of eligibility left, and only 4 underclassmen.

None.
Richey has already sat down and met with the entire team, we've got 13 scholarship guys that are all excited about playing at FU next season!

Don’t sleep on Davis Molnar next year. He has the potential to be really good.
I agree Paul. When I watched a preseason practice in the fall I thought he was the most “ready” of the freshmen and was a bit surprised at the redshirt.

Think CBR got the perfect guy!

1. Character
2. Shooter
3. Lock down defense

As far as lineup, lots of pieces. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. Dont forget great incoming class

Can see two "starting" lineups. Like a hockey line change. Good prob to have

I like the pick up.

I love that Furman is going out and identifying under-the-radar guys that fit the culture, scheme, and philosophy of the program.

I am just super impressed at how this program has evolved. You have a group little used younger players that are working while they wait, they transition into substitutes, then to starters, then to all conference players. We've seen this same formula play out year after year. Next man up and the group behind takes the place of the group in front.
