Point Guard

Last night's win was a lot of fun.

I think we have seen a solid starting five come together, but in order to improve we desperately need an upgrade at PG next year.

Seven turnovers, in a win, from Femi is not acceptable. A season AST/TO ratio of 1.2 is not acceptable.

I've read the Mintz boat has sailed but this should be a desirable situation for a transfer.

Adding a quality PG adds to our depth by pushing Femi or Horton to the bench.

Capel can not miss on the opportunity to upgrade that position.

Just wondering: If a starting PG is added and with Mo leaving, do you have to push Femi or Horton to the bench? Or are you okay with starting those three with Burton and Hugley?

Is Nike definitely back next year? Do people just view him more as a combo guard than a point guard? It's a small sample size but he went 17-39 from three at Pitt so far; if he could actually shoot threes at a decent clip to force people to not go under screens, I'd prefer that to Femi's ongoing turnover issues.

I think adding a good point guard transfer could really help burton and odukale. I was thinking of someone like the point guard Virginia tech got. That would allow us to play 4 around one , with our perimeter players being good ball handlers. Burton and Odukale would be able to be the slashing wings they seem to excell at. They could shift to the point if necessary but having those two with Horton and Sibande would make you hard to guard.
