When is the first game that GE will play? (18th?) It will be interesting to follow his progress.

Will they play together or will they substitute? They need to prove they can be a better team with both in the lineup. Substituting one for the other makes the 5 spot pretty solid however.

McD says you'll see both playing together at times but also subbing for one another at times. I can't imagine GE can go more than about 20 minutes yet not having played in a year even with his conditioning supposedly good (went from 300 to 270 since the spring).

I expect CU to beat Duke in the finals of the Dance to win the NC.

Maybe I haven't been keeping up with all the postings here, but I don't recall reading or hearing any Jays fan say that he would come out and "dominate" from the get go. That seems to be coming more from the folks to the South of Omaha. Heck, who knows, he many never "dominate" but I'm just excited to see what he can do for the Jays and how he can help this team.

:Beer:

The only posts stating such a thing by CU fans have been in obvious jest. Other than those, I think the only thing CU fans have predicted was that he'd win NOY.

This is just Shockerfan trying to create problems or lay some groundwork for future problems he plans on causing.

I think having the ability to sub a true 5 for a true 5 will be a big help. Right now when Kenny goes out....we have to play Wayne Runnel, Ethan Wragge, or Doug McDermott at the 5. Not a good situation. So having two bigs will help just by not having as big of a size drop off and mismatches.

We'll see over the next 3 games on how some of the rotations might work and what might be effective. Some people are talking about lineups with Ethan or Doug at the 3 and Klaw and GE in the middle. Sounds great except for defense. Who knows, it will be fun to see what the hype has been about and really nice to have 2 guys big enough to play center.
