Don't count out Moss

Seen several suggestions of the starting lineup for next year. Most....if not all, have placed Moss as the 8-9 player in the rotation. If you've heard the many comments from players in the program....figure on Moss being a contributor this year. And maybe, a starter. Where does this leave Ellingson? One only wonders...

I saw Liestikow from the Register put him and Ellingson together in the 9-10 spot behind Bohannon and he seems pretty dialed in to the basketball program. I was hoping he would be a starter this year so maybe it was just to motivate him or something
 
Nobody knows for sure how good he'll be. Even though nobody plays defense there, it will be interesting to see how he does in the PTL.

I doubt Baer was in the top 10 rotation plans last year according to Liestikow or anybody else.
Moss will be ahead of Ellingson in the rotation.

Liestikow actually projected Baer to get minutes in his column last season. I have no doubt Moss will be ahead of Ellingson but if Moss is 9th in minutes played next year that's disappointing
 
Nice feedback gents. How would your rotation look?
My best guess is
Williams- Jok/Moss/Bohannon
Jok- Moss/Ellingson/Dailey
Uhl- Baer
Cook- Kreiner
Wagner- Jones/Pemsl
All cannot play and get meaningful minutes. I think 2 need to redshirt. Pemsl and Bohannon would be my guess. Bohannon redshirts as long as Jok and Moss can sub as PG. It seems to me that overall the entire team is made up of interchangeable parts.

Bohannon isn't going to redshirt and Jok's not going to play PG.

Guaranteed:
PG- Williams/Bohannon
Wing- Jok
Wing - ??
4/5- Uhl

Will play a lot of minutes assuming healthy:
Baer/Jones/Wagner/Cook/Moss
 
Keep em coming..Love seeing all the different scenarios. Waiting on someone throwing out Jones to the starting lineup. And...not that I want to push Ellingson out the door, can he legitimately be expected to provide minutes?

Jones is in mine. He will be competing with Williams for second leading scorer on the team.

Williams
Jok
Jones
Uhl
Cook
 
I'd be surprised if Cook and or Uhl don't outscore Williams
Uhl is fairly likely. Cook is possible but he wasn't even a huge scorer in high school. I understand why he wasn't, but it still makes it hard for me to predict him scoring more than Williams.

It's hard for you to believe the best recruit Fran has gotten can score more than a player that spent an entire season behind Mike Gesell and most of the season behind Brady Ellingson? I think Cook will be at about 10 ppg. Aaron White and Basabe did 11 ppg as a freshman and Cook is a much better prospect than either of them

This isn't a knock on Williams at all, just the facts. He had exactly one P5 offer, and averaged 1.4 PPG last year. Cook could have had his pick between nearly any school he wanted. So I'm not sure how it would be hard to predict Cook scoring more than Williams.
 
I'm leaning towards a lineup of Williams, Jok, Moss, Uhl and Jones. Wagner and Moss first off the bench. Then Cook, Bohannon, Kriener
