We all know the usual starting line-up now, Blair, Hubbard, Smith, Porter, McLean.
Blair needs 199 points to hold the Big South scoring championship
Smith is about to have 500 career points
McLean has eight double-doubles this season.
Now... what are Hubbard and Porter doing productive? Maybe one of our downfalls is the starting lineup we have on the court everynight. I would put Baker and Brewington in. Can it hurt the team chemistry... I mean, what do we have to lose?
What would everyone elses starting lineup be?

I'm convinced Porter is a guy who needs to be on the floor. He doesn't fill up a stat sheet, but he's a classic glue guy who plays solid defense, rebounds well, screens well and opens things up for his teammates.

Rell helps defensively and on the boards while Coach has a man crush on Hubbard.

The starting lineup isn't the problem. The problem is how he subs throughout the game.

I think Holland, Jenkins, and Baker need to play more, while Hubbard and Porter need to play less.

Holland played 20 some minutes last night which is what he should be playing. Jenkins and Baker need to be around 15-20.

Unless you plan on running a VMI-esque offense, you need to have somebody int he lineup besides Ace who will crash the boards. I'd like to see Anthony picking up a few more rebounds but I understand his role of stopper in the backcourt.

HUbbard only plays because he is the rah rah outspoken one. I think it's horse manure. He is horrible IMO

I don't know if I'd go as far as horrible. He has his moments. He's more inconsistant. Probably because he's out of position.

That was my thought. Damien is someone I would much rather have playing the blocks to open up some more shots for Alex. He is not someone I would have handling the ball at the point. That is what BJ (Jenkins) and Justin are for.

BJ is going to be a 2 if Coach Dunton has anything to say about it. Holland is the 1.
