I'd go...

Markus
Koby
Sacar
Sam
John

I think Joey and Sam are essentially the same player (slower, stretch 4) and getting more athletic would be helpful.  This slots Sacar onto the wing and has a little more quickness in the backcourt. 

Another option would be to start Elliott and bring Koby off the bench to spell Greg but then run the point when Markus goes out.

Bailey subs for Sacar.  Joey for Sam, but gets starters minutes.

Agree. I also wonder if Bailey could be in the mix for Joey's spot, just to have a better balance of offense & defense.

Yup. There us always next year. And Bailey starting without being able to shoot leaves a lot to be desired.

Cut Bailey.

Actually forget that there’s always next year. Fold the program.

Sacar hit 23.5% from deep last year & 39.1% this year. I think it's entirely possible Bailey could also improve his shooting.

Thought Morrow was more impressive than John toward the end of the year.

I thought Markus was hiring an agent?

I’ll wait to see who’s left after Wojo is coaching the Running Rebels and Markus is in the draft. Guessing the roster is gutted. So I’d think our starters will be a grad transfer, an unsigned recruit, and maybe guys like Ed and Sacar if they have not graduated yet, since they’ve already redshirted.

Bailey, Morrow and new PG are keys for improvement next season. Bailey has big upside potential, IMO.

Had to guess right now I would say:

Markus
McEwen or Elliott (closest position battle IMHO)
Anim
Sammy
John (Ed gets similar minutes but John in to win the tip)

Joey gets more minutes when offense is needed, Bailey when defense is needed. Redshirt Cain. Hopefully Eke is healthy and can play the emergency center role that Matt played. Redshirt Akanno or keep him for emergencies. Ideally get a traditional transfer that's redshirtting. If Eke isn't healthy, I wouldn't mind finding a lower level grad transfer big that can be our emergency center. I mean I'll take a stud grad transfer if one is available but I wouldn't mind finding a third center with that route.

I'd like to see more of what we had in year 4 on offense with two guards that can initiate the offense. I'd like to keep and improve on the defensive intensity. I'd also like to experiment with some lineups where Joey plays the 5. I don't think we should be 5 out all the time but I think having a 5 out offense to change into to take advantage of slow footed teams.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

A different point of view:
Koby at point
Markus at 2
Sacar
Sam
Joey
Play 5 out with 3 quick guys who can back-cut.  Make the opponents change to MU style rather than constantly changing to match the opponent's style.

Getting serious minutes
BB
Theo
Ed
Greg

In Emergency
Cain (unless his confidence comes back, then he gets serious minutes)

The more NCAA games I watch, the more disgusted I get. After watching ball for two straight days, we are a long way from being ready to be late into March. Hopes for next year match this year’s performance.

Sadly, that is only part of the problem. I bought into some the nonsense sold on here to some degree, but last 36 hours was a real eye opener. If anyone that watched the last three weeks and is confident we can play high level is flat out delusional or lying to themselves.

Well I don’t think we’re that far away from being a Sweer 16 program. Having a guy or two who can break down a defense opens up the floor for shooters. But I’m not in love with our overall talent.

Right, because we all just started caring about MU hoops 3 weeks ago.  Don't know about anything before that.

Some folks on here have been watching for awhile and might actually have a different opinion than yours. I respect your opinion, why the need to get your nose out of joint if someone is not in agreement with you view of the program? The last three weeks mean nothing to me, the last five years do. If you find it amusing to throw jabs my way, go for it.  With all due respect, I very much appreciate the work you and the mods do, but aside from jabs, what do you bring to the discussions on here?

Marquette's last 3 weeks were just an orchestrated revenue plan laid out by the Scoop-inati to drive traffic.
