Title: Offense next year
Post by: FHSU92 on April 12, 2007, 10:06:52 PM
Will it be more similar VCU's (fellow HS teammate) or Huggs'?  I think it will be more VCU-like...faster pace and pushing more up the floor.  He mentioned the faster paced play during the radio interview last Fri a.m. I believe.

Sorry if already addressed, but hadn't seen it.  With stunners look into the future, it led to this question.

Will we have a fast point guard next year?  If not, I don't see the VCU offense working well.

Blake Young is fast.

Blake Young is fast.

I've pretty much stayed out of the Stew vs. Young debate because I thought that niether was that much better than the other.  However, the main reason I thought Clent took over the starting job (outside of them flip-flopping health status) was that Huggins realized he wasn't going to be able to outscore anyone, and needed to keep the scores down.  Stewert got that, and slowed the ball down more.  Blake is much more likely to push the ball.  Next season, I think we'll want to push it more.  I can see Stew moving to the #2 and Blake starting at point fro this reason...although both will take turns bringing the ball up, and Hoskins will play a lot of point-forward in the half court.

Well, that and the fact that no one other than Young and Hoskins looked like they had been a part of a fast break...ever.

I don't see any harm with having Young and Stewart on the court together at all.

Not sure about the new-b's, but BY is quicker than Stew -- not wanting to get into the stoo/yung deb8.

I think Pullen *might* be better than May$ by conference time.  If so, that would give us three good guards with my boi Freddy Krueger Brown as an unknown.  

If Beaz can get into college-level shape over the summer, our bigs will be quick.  Walker, Beaz, Hos, Sutton, Lu/JB will be an interesting rotation.  If we can keep 2 of those 1st three on the court all the time, we should do very well.
