I wish Perry had 2 years left, but our guard rotations the next few years are going to be awesome. And I don't know where Buddy's minutes come from as we get a set rotation later in the season, but I would like to see him on the floor (as long as he's productive, of course) developing as much as possible this season, maybe instead of Manning?
I don't see a path for Manning to see much time this season unless something changes radically. Same with Finister.
I hope they stick around because they are quality depth players to practice against. If they want playing time they are going to have to leave I think.
Tang clearly loves Manning, starting him agasint USC because of all the little things he does -- including being the first off the bench to welcome players during timeouts. He just needs to find his niche and improve, like Cam has.
Tang is building a team in the Baylor natty image, with guards who can shoot and get assists. They're not yet anywhere like the Baylor guards were defensively, but improvement should come with their athleticism. That might be Finister's ticket to PT as he has more length.

We'll see about Kaluma, but projecting him as one of the conference's best seems a reach. I see him being up and down, but hopefully with more up games and down ones. Even Creighton haters say he is good defensively, so I hope he displays that and continues to rebound.
