October 17, 200718 yr Jasper had what you could consider as a major knee surgery. He needs to get back to 100%. He did NOT have micro. That is a rumor, and nothing more. Jasper has stated you dont have to worry about him shooting the ball this year. I think Tubby had him scared to shoot last year. I think you will see Jasper come out a bit this year.
October 17, 200718 yr Isn't this similar size to Pitino's first year? If memory serves the starting center in Pitino's first two seasons was Reggie Hanson who was 6'7". The Bombinos (1990 season) had: Derrick Miller 6'4" Sean Woods 6'0" (?) John Pelphrey 6'7" Deron Feldhous 6'7" Richie Farmer 6' Jonathan Davis 6' 8" Jeff Brassow 6'4" That was about it. If you recall they went 14-14 playing their tails off along the way.
October 17, 200718 yr haha :laugh: Who else is gonna do it if we go 4 guards? Crawford or Meeks are your only other options, and I dont believe Crawford could do it. Meeks could, but I dont believe you are utilizing him in the best way by playing D down low. Jasper is probably more capable with his height and length.
October 19, 200718 yr PG Bradley 2G Meeks SF Crawford SF Legion PF Patterson Back ups PG Porter 2G Legion SF Stewart or Stevenson PF Patterson C Williams or Carter
October 20, 200718 yr Anybody else notice the name that has been left out consistently through this thread? Ramon Harris. While inexperienced, this kid could very well start at the 4 spot if needed, and will probably see a good share of time at the 3/4 spots. He is one that was being raved about in the summer workouts and is apparently an athletic freak. He also grew an inch this past year and is now at 6'7 and long. Watch out.
October 22, 200718 yr I've heard this question a lot and i really dont know but i have a guess at whos starting this year. I think Kentucky should run a 4 guard set like Villanova did a couple years ago. Here's who i would start: PG Derrick Jasper G Jodie Meeks G Joe Crawford G Ramel Bradely F Patrick Patterson Villanova was succesful with this offense and I think Kentucky can be too. I really dont think we will see a 4 guard lineup starting this year...I think we will see it used at time during games, but not starting..To start the year I think we will see this lineup PG Bradley Sg Crawford Sf Meeks Pf Patterson C Carter I really like AJ Stewart and think he may possibly end up in the starting lineup for Carter eventually if Carter doesn't do that well...
October 22, 200718 yr Talked to a friend who saw practice the other day and the first team running right now looks like Bradley, Meeks, Harris, Stevenson, Patterson.
October 22, 200718 yr Talked to a friend who saw practice the other day and the first team running right now looks like Bradley, Meeks, Harris, Stevenson, Patterson. I highly doubt that will be the starting lineup...Unless Crawford is injured he will be starting...
October 22, 200718 yr I highly doubt that will be the starting lineup...Unless Crawford is injured he will be starting... Also heard BCG has been riding Crawford pretty hard. I know he isnt 100%, but apparently he hasnt been doing everything he can. I guess we will see.
October 31, 200718 yr At least for the exhibition, it's going to look like this: Bradley Meeks Harris Stevenson Coury
