I got killed for trying to start a similar thread earlier this spring.
Now that the coaching staff has officially been announced, the 2018 roster is complete, and most of us will go on a summer siesta from the board, before we cut out, does anyone have an interest in generating a new thread where we can all list/vote on a predicted starting five come game one?

Smithen Richard Pickett Shivers/Huerter/Camper Fisher/Degnan/Friday
Think the first three are pretty well locked in. The two bigs are going to come down to who can best fit the defensive system, so tough to predict that until you see the kids play in it and what sort of shape they are in.

I have zero confidence in this being correct, but you miss 100% of the shots you don't take! That's a little phrase I just made up.
Smithen Richard Bayer Shivers Fisher

Smithen Richard Bayer Shivers Fisher Smith, Richard and Shivers are definites. Batter at the 3/4 between Bayer, Pickett, Camper and Huerter. Battle at the 5 between Fisher, Degnan and Friday. My guess is: Smithen Richard Pickett Shivers Degnan (I think he fits this system)

He’s a spotty/streaky shooter and JP tried to use him last year and if you ask me it was one of the biggest reasons the team was so bad defensively. Friday should start if he can get in shape.

I hope this guy can coach looking at these possible line ups, ouch. But that's why they play the games. On paper and preseason picks Siena has to be 10th or 11th.

Georges Darwiche Kadeem Smithen Braedon Bayer Manny Camper/Sloan Seymour Fisher/Friday...I think Fisher will get respect minutes at first, but believe it will be split.
You cant possibly play Richards or Shivers over Bayer. He never would have used up a 1 year scholarship if he didn't plan to play him. He will want to play the guys he recruited and the players that he can develop. Pickett will be in there somewhere too.

Dont count Darwiche out. He will be 20 yrs old Sep 9 and has significant experience. From what I have seen of the existing roster... I like him starting. That will of course all get hashed out in practices. But, he is smart, quick with the ball, a capable passer and can shoot. In the videos available he also looks to be capable of defending... that will of course get sorted out in practices.
I prefer to see the kids a couple times in practice at a minimum before i choose but right now...
Darwiche Richard/Smithen Smithen/Pickett Huerter Friday
I should add... that a lot of what I want to see hinges on the development of Camper.

My feeling is Fisher is the sort of leader that JC is going to like. He's going to work hard and he is a big that can shoot the 3 which fits well in the offensive scheme. Hopefully he's not going to be a 25 minute a night guy but I do think that at least to start the year he'll be given the honor of being named a starter. All the while I will be hoping that some other big steps up so much that they beat him out. He'll be a pretty big defensive liability if he is out there for long stretches.

It is intriguing seeing the combination of players being listed. I think it's amazing that JC and his staff, in just a few weeks, has put together enough recruits that we can even have a full roster to debate about. Win or lose next year, it sure is exciting to see the direction we are headed. I don't think there is any question that with the work ethic of this staff and JC's leadership that we will be getting the most out of what talent we will have on our 18-19 roster.

Richard Smithen Shivers TH or Camper Friday
Is what I would like to see. Friday is looking good...he was at the front of the line running the hills. The key will be what these guys do when they go home. Will they continue to work and come back ready to go in the fall? They will have a few weeks at home before school starts again

Too early to tell. I’m sure the staff doesn’t have anything set yet.
