Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

I want to make sure I am prepared for next year's big east fantasy basketball season.

Please put an asterisk next to the name of guys that you expect to bust out and have better years than might be expected. Also note which freshmen you expect to be in the rotation (we need to start one freshman)



Here is Nova's breakdown:

New guys:
Omari Spellman (Freshman who should see 20+ mpg)
Eric Paschall (Soph transfer who will be part of the rotation)
Dylan Painter (Freshman, expected to redshirt)

Rotation:
PG: Brunson
SG: Booth*
Wing: Hart
Wing: Jenkins
Big: Reynolds*

Bench:
Bridges
Paschall*
Spellman*
Divincenzo (10 mpg type bench player)

If Hart goes pro then Bridges or Paschall take his starting spot and Divincenzo might be a bigger part of the rotation



Thanks for your input. I am going to own it next year in the fantasy league.

Lets post all our players and how the scouts rated them and see how our teams match up with Villanova. Every team in the Big East has to copy the Villanova program.

I honestly have no clue what our starting line up will be. *= a new player #= player back from injury

Guards: Johnathan Mulmore (JUCO)*, Tre Campbell (Jr), Jagan Mosely (Fr)*
Guards/Wings: LJ Peak (Jr), Kaleb Johnson (So), Rodney Pryor (Grad Transfer from Robert Morris)*
Wings: Isaac Copeland (Jr), Paul White (RS So)#, Marcus Derrickson (so), Reggie Cameron (Sr)
Bigs: Jessie Govan (So), Bradley Hayes (RS Sr), Akoy Agau (RS Jr)$, Trey Mourning (Jr), George Muresan (Fr Walk on (yes he's the son))

St. John's

Guards: M. LoVett, S. Ponds, F. Mussini

Wings: B. Ahmed, R. Freudenberg (3/4), M. Ellison

Bigs: Y. Sima, K. Yakwe, T. Owens, D. Williams (4/3)

Creighton:

PG: Watson (S), Albert, Mintz
SG: Foster (S), Zierden
SF: Thomas (S), Harrell
PF: Huff (S), Hegner, Krampelj
C: Hanson (S), Patton

Mac loves Zierden so I could see him going with a 3 guard lineup and Thomas coming off the bench. Justin Patton, the Top 50 redshirt freshman is the big question mark. Supposedly he's grown to 7'1 now. He's probably only 235 right now, if he can bulk up some more, he can be a major contributor. He's not a typical C though, he runs the floor really well and has range to the 3 point line. Not much of a post player. Big upside.

People, i dont think your teams will be running 10-12 men rotations. So just lieting your complete depth chart does not help.

I dont want the johnnies or blue birds eleventh man on my fantasy team

Also, please note who are freshmen

And to the st johns fans who just joined last week and has 6 posts ripping nova fans for wanting to talk basketball, please go back to the AAC board and talk temple football.

As of now:

PG: Lovett
SG: Ellison (Unless Ponds lights it up in practice
SF: Bashir
PF: Yakwe
C: Sima

Might get a big one by the end of the week, I could see Livingston starting over Sima.
If you remember the elite 8 year, Tyrone Grant was our center at 6'7

Starting Lineup:

G: Lewis
G: Savage*
F: Martin
F: Chrabascz
F: Wideman

Key Reserves:
G Woodson*
G Baldwin*
C Brunk*

Bench:
G McDermott*
F Baddley*
C Fowler
G Bennett#
G Pettus#

* Incoming Player (Freshmen, RS Freshmen, Eligible Transfer)
# Walk-On

We will have a pretty different roster next year, obviously. Lots of new faces (McDermott and Savage sat out last year).

There's talk that Savage will play a lot of point next year. If that is the case, Woodson will probably start, and Lewis will come in as sixth or seventh man. There's also a good chance Lewis will not start come conference season. He couldn't compete with the large guards in this league last year.

PG: Edmond Sumner So.
SG: Myles Davis Sr.
SF: Trevon Bluiett Jr.
PF: Kaiser Gates So.
C: Rashid Gaston Sr. -Transfer from Norfolk State-sat out last season, practiced with the team.

Bench: G/F JP Macura Jr., C Sean O'Mara Jr.

Freshman: G Quentin Goodin- Consensus 4 star combo guard. ESPN top 100
F/C Eddie Ekiyor - red-shirted second semester 2016, 3-4 star guy depending on scouting services.
F/C Tyrique Jones- ESPN top 100, 3-4 star guy depending on scouting services.

With two open schollies, this will change. We need more help in the front court. Pretty sure we have stopped recruiting Gordon.
