By no means do I think Junior Cadougan has won the starting point guard slot...think Reggie Smith has a very legitimate chance at starting at PG come Big East season.  Buzz REALLY likes Reggie....and he sure did not disappoint today.

Yeah--but he likes Bucyks more. I can see cadougan sitting all year because Buzz loves Bucyks, and cadougan moving on. Not too smart of Buzz

You get all this from an mostly meaningless exhibition game? I think it is a bit premature to saying Junior is going to transfer. Maybe Buzz was trying to send him a message that he won't have the position given to him. I think by the end of the year Junior is getting a lot of minutes. He is pretty much a freshman right now.

JC had bit of an ankle injury. That is why he didn't play that much. I think Buzz loves JC and see a bright future for him at MU.

Buzz has done the starting upperclassmen thing in early games before. I wouldn't read too far into it.

If you were at the game, you should have been able to see Buzz highfiving Junior and clapping enthusastically when Junior made a smart/hustle play.

No reason to be on red alert.

Didn't say he was transferring--said I could vision it if Bucyks eats the minutes at PG where his style does not fit.

Truth.  Cadougan had some instances of lockdown-D that got Buzz really jacked up.  Hopefully we see more of that as the season continues
