Brandon Huntley-Hatfield – #1 (He wore #5 at Louisville last year)
Paul McNeil – #2 (He wore #2 in High School last year)
Dontrez Styles – #3 (He wore #0 at Georgetown last year)
Trey Parker – #5 (He wore #5 in High School last year)
Marcus Hill – #10 (He wore #0 at Bowling Green last year)
We don’t know what number Ismael Diouf will be wearing at NC State next year yet.
Remember guys, this was Fairfield, not Duke, UNC, Virginia, Miami, Syracuse, Louisville, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame, Clemson, Wake, Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech,or Boston College. Those are the measurement games not these warm ups.
Gott better start thinking beyond this season. Dennis, Yurt7, and Terry are probably gone after this season. He better start giving Shaun Kirk more minutes before we lose another kid to transfer. Markell, Kirk, Kapita, and Hicks are the core of the future.
Kirk isn’t gonna transfer.
A. He came in knowing he’d be a three or four year guy.
B. His Little Brother is gonna be a walk on next season.
Terry is probably gonna be here. he’s said multiple times that he wants to and is gonna apply for a 6th year. and the precedent (sp?) has already been set by players this year (Alex Murphy, Tyler Ennis) to give it to him. And he Loves Raleigh.
I hope Terry does stay. He’s the best shooter on the team but 6 years is a long time to be in college.
yea but he has said multiple times he wants to stay.
No, Gott need to think about this season. Next season is next season. We need to focus on maximizing the talent we have this season. next season roster is way on the bottom in our priority list. I don’t understand why you think about next season.
That kind of thinking is why this staff is having to scramble all the time after transfers and early departures. A good program has to not only think about the current season but many seasons to come. Keeping all the guys happy and productive is part of the job of a coach.
Don’t forget about Dorin and Rowan.
Of course.
Markell is our point guard of the future. He could potentially play 4 years and still have a chance at the NBA. But he needs to work on his outside shooting and FTs. It’s rare to see a guard struggle at the FT line.
He was a streaky shooter in HS. Avg 31 a game. i THINK the shooter gets better as the season and his career progress. No idea about his free throws. he has good form i think that may be a part of his freshman wall.
also Abu had 9 boards no 8.
Quick edit note: Should be “rout” not “route” in title.
Nice take. Agree with everything said.
