By doing so we have the best lineup:
PG Joe T
SG Kris Murray
SF Keegan Murray
PF PMac
C Ogundele
This team could be a handful

Play Kris Murray at SG
- Thread starter punk1980
- Start date
Looks like all you need, is for Iowa to fire Fran and hire you as interim coach. If it works for Maryland......
Ogundele, I will admit, with the 16 minutes he played against Purdue, he held his own, I will commend him for that, but he is not ready for starter minutes. Rebraca is still going to get the starter minutes at center. He was not brought here to sit on the bench.
Other then that, I think you're on to something putting Kris at the off guard position.
Problem with that, who do bring in off the bench at the forward position other then Payton, when Keegan and Kris needs a blow.
Perkins needs to get more minutes and installing him at the off guard spot is not a bad idea either, but if JBO is not hunting his shot or not using any screens to get open he needs to be on the bench along with Connor the other 3 pt specialist, and least in his mind. Keep shooting Connor, here's a hint, close your eyes before you let go of the ball, it can't hurt....

I disagree. I actually like our starting lineup. Let's see if JBo is on fire as a starter and then bring in Kris. I love Perkins and Kris off the bench. Josh is not ready to be a starter but is ready to start contributing.
I think you’re off your rocker with Kris at SG. Especially when we have so many other players that would be better suited for the position.
I like Kris as a backup forward to Keegan and Pat. Plus you can play all three when you “go small”. Josh deserves 10-15 minutes a game in Big Ten play and can increase that if his conditioning improves. Rebraca will get the most center minutes though.
I like the guard rotations and would adjust JBo’s minutes up or down depending upon how his shooting is going in the game. When he’s on he’s usually fire through the game, but when he’s off early he usually doesn’t get it going during the game.
Connor needs to only play spot minutes to give the forwards some rest, in an emergency with fouls or injuries, or at the end of a game when protecting a lead and we need another ball handler and FT shooter. He sure shouldn’t be taking a half dozen or more shots per game when we have so many other better shooters. I’d tell him to not take any threes, move inside the line a few feet and take some midrange shots where his form is better.

Best line up is.
1. JT or Ulis
2. Perkins.
3. Pat
4. Murray
5. Murray
The more these 6 players are on the court the better the results will be.
Id really like to see more Sandfort too.

Our 6'9" 3 point shooters went a combined 2 -17 in the ISU game. Any other ideas?
Ulis/Joe T
Perkins
Kris
Keegan
Rebraca/JO
Why the hell would we would ever consider playing Pmac in the post is beyond ridiculous. Dude get gassed running the floor, think about him getting tossed around by guys 50-70 pounds heavier than him. We already suck at rebounding we might as well try and put guys on the floor who give us the best opportunity to rebound. They also happen to be the best defenders. Jbo, Pmac are two of the worst defenders on the team they can come off the bench and provide and offensive spark which we will need. My opinion I’ve been spouting off all morning on the boards.

Completely agree with your top 7. PMAC, Jbo and Sandfort are the 8, 9 & 10.
Stop shooting so many gd 3’s when we can get them by driving and drawing a foul. And secondly; start rebounding and we wouldn’t feel like we need to shoot 3’s every possession to cut our 20 point deficit.
Call me crazy but it'd be nice to know the opponent before deciding what lineup is best
JBo
Perk
Murray
Murray
Flip
Ulis
Pat
don’t think this team can afford to go any deeper in the rotation than this in competitive games.

True we missed everything. Fundamentally /strategically speaking it’s smarter not like it really made a shitload of difference
Kris, Perkins and Ulis have been getting more important minutes. I thought the rotations against Utah St were pretty good. Basically JoeT and Ulis are splitting PG pretty evenly. JBo and Perkings splitting SG. Kris is getting almost as many minutes as PMac, with CMac filling in where needed. CMac did a much better job of defending Horvath last night than anyone else. Big O has shown he deserves a few minutes, but not much more.
