Re: Depth chart predictions
Offensive rebounding seems to be less of a an emphasis these days. Greg Popovich has all but abandoned it. Something about it creating greater risk of being beat in transition.SectionBAggie wrote: ↑September 15th, 2020, 8:58 pmOffensive rebounding numbers are interesting - and not what I expected.
USU's ORb %, though better than average the last two years, were not all that significant against the norm and even less than many previous seasons.
At the other end of the court is where the excellence shines. The last two years were significantly better than the norm as well as better than any of the previous 10 years.
I know we rebounded well, but I expected more of that to come on the offensive glass.

Re: Depth chart predictions
Coach Smith commented on multiple occasions that Bean and Anderson have strong chemistry on the court. I'd like to see more of that this year!nswaggie wrote: ↑September 15th, 2020, 5:24 pmTrue, at the end of year last year we typically would see Anderson and Bean playing the 4 and 5 when Quetta went out. I wonder if that was more of a stop gap because the other centers weren’t ready or if it was strategic, it felt more like a stop gap but was effective at times.slcagg wrote: ↑September 15th, 2020, 2:30 pmOne interesting thing will be if zapala is as good as advertised we may not require queta to play 35 mins per night.nswaggie wrote: ↑September 15th, 2020, 1:52 pmThis team has the potential to be very deep. It will be interesting to see who emerges and if multiple guys emerge does Smith go with a deep rotation? The last couple years it seems with the exception of mop up duty his rotation only went about 8 deep. Will there be a guy that demands 35+ minutes like Merrill or will those minutes get split up between more guys?
I don’t think Quetta has the motor to go 35+ not to mention foul trouble issues.

Re: Depth chart predictions
To this end, Bean spent the offseason working on his 3pt shot. I'm curious to see if we'll have both of them on the floor with Queta, or of this will be more of a small-ball situation. If we do have all three of them at the same time (or someone else at the 5), does Anderson go 3, Bean go 4? Or vice versa?OrangeCountyAggie wrote: ↑September 16th, 2020, 4:29 pmCoach Smith commented on multiple occasions that Bean and Anderson have strong chemistry on the court.

Just from what I saw last year, Anderson seems like he'd be a better 3. He looks very comfortable handling the ball as a guard. But he's just so versatile, I think he could be put just about everywhere. While Bean will obviously a key offensive and defensive player in a way that I don't anticipate Anderson will be, I don't know if Bean has the same positional range that Anderson does.

Re: Depth chart predictions
I like the idea of Andersen playing the 3 and dragging a wing player into the post. He is much stronger than most threes in the league and has good enough post moves to either demand a double-team or a match-up problem for his defender. He is a versatile player that I expect to be a central figure in the offense this year.

Re: Depth chart predictions
The key to a wing player this year is being able to spread the floor so we can run the offense through queta in the post. Just my opinion. That could be Anderson or maybe someone else.Yossarian wrote: ↑September 16th, 2020, 4:59 pmI like the idea of Andersen playing the 3 and dragging a wing player into the post.

Re: Depth chart predictions
Anderson has shown he can stretch the floor past the three-point line. He did it against LSU and he had two big threes against SDSU in the tournament championship game. He looked comfortable shooting from distance. I also like his strength in the post. I think he is our most versatile player.slcagg wrote: ↑September 17th, 2020, 12:20 pmThe key to a wing player this year is being able to spread the floor so we can run the offense through queta in the post.

Re: Depth chart predictions
Agreed. I'm not sure how his handles are, and I don't know if he'd be comfortable at the 1. However, from his play last year, the 2-5 are all positions he can fill in the right situation while still playing well. I love his game, and I'm excited we've got an official NCAA start time now.Yossarian wrote: ↑September 17th, 2020, 12:28 pmAnderson has shown he can stretch the floor past the three-point line.

Re: Depth chart predictions
We have so much emerging talent on this team. I keep thinking about Ashworth and McChesney and what they're going to bring as freshman. We might have a rough month or two getting minutes to out new talent, but once they catch up with the speed of D1 ball, it'll be a ride.
I've already scheduled myself off for March 10-13th!!

Ashworth released a tweet of him shooting around. He looks like he’s filled out. Not sure the context of that vid.

Yessir. Zahar Vedischev. 6’6” Russian Guard. I think it’ll be difficult to redshirt him. He can stretch a defense with his range.nvspuds wrote:Don't you have one more Eastern European guard?

Re: Depth chart predictions
100% agree with your starting 5 (one I predicted a while ago) and think McChesney with his size and shooting, will likely be the first player off the beach (at the 3/4) followed by Ashworth to add depth at PG. After that, it's a bit hazy. I know Smith LOVES, LOVES Brock Miller so he'll get minutes early in the season but hopefully Vedischev will take those minutes as the season progresses. Stastny, Worster, Wickizer, and maybe Shulga, get redshirted.slcagg wrote: ↑October 15th, 2020, 10:23 pmI agree with you.

Re: Depth chart predictions
With winter sports athletes being granted an extra year, would we really want to (or need to) redshirt anyone? I mean maybe we want to wait and redshirt some of those same players next year when the eligibility clock is turned back on and not waste a redshirt in a season that doesn't count against eligibility anyway. I'm sure the NCAA policy has some specific wording and details around this so maybe you can't do as I suggest, but just wondering.

Re: Depth chart predictions
@22, Now that they've practiced and got some time together, does your other previous statement hold true, that Zapala is too good to redshirt? Is he looking to play at the 4, or will he be Queta's key backup and plan to get all his minutes as center?

Re: Depth chart predictions
At this point in time, the only thing I can tell you about Szymon is he is NOT a 4. He has 5 skills and he can pop out and hit a 3 if the opportunity comes up.Real Life Aggie wrote: ↑October 16th, 2020, 9:52 am@22, Now that they've practiced and got some time together, does your other previous statement hold true, that Zapala is too good to redshirt?

Thank you! That clarifies a lot of questions I'd had about his role.aggies22 wrote: ↑October 16th, 2020, 10:16 amAt this point in time, the only thing I can tell you about Szymon is he is NOT a 4.

Re: Depth chart predictions
In positionless basketball, does this essentially just mean Szymon won’t share the court with someone like Queta/Kuba/Dorius?Real Life Aggie wrote: ↑October 16th, 2020, 10:27 amThank you!

Re: Depth chart predictions
That’s positionless basketball right there! Lol
Not many (college or NBA) teams could throw out a 5 man line-up that averages 7’ ! I’d love for Coach Smith to put that group in together for a few minutes sometime, just to say we did.

Re: Depth chart predictions
I said Zapala wasn't a 4 back in May but guess I lack cred to be believed.aggies22 wrote: ↑October 16th, 2020, 10:16 amAt this point in time, the only thing I can tell you about Szymon is he is NOT a 4.

Re: Depth chart predictions
It’s alright a lot of things are repeated on here. Which I need it at least a few times before something sticks.I am an Aggie Man wrote: ↑October 16th, 2020, 11:43 pmI said Zapala wasn't a 4 back in May but guess I lack cred to be believed.aggies22 wrote: ↑October 16th, 2020, 10:16 amAt this point in time, the only thing I can tell you about Szymon is he is NOT a 4.
