Holmes will start at SF, and Howe at SG. Both should be upgrades from last year. Wilder will come off the bench this year but should start next year. Hill is a lower OVR than I expected, he may be a career backup. Pham will redshirt to save a year of eligibility and to break up this 5 man class.

No one is interested in joining my program. The highest ranked is SG Steve King, who I think is a backup PG option. PG is a real problem for me and something I really need to land in this class.

MKnight82 Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 (edited) END OF REGULAR SEASON Way better season, finished 22-7 for the year, with a 13-5 conference record which was 2nd in the MEAC. IN CONFERENCE STATS/RANKINGS PPG RPG APG SPG BPG Turnovers Fouls FG% 3PT% 79.1 - 1st 35.2 - 1st 17.4 - 1st 6.4 - 5th 7.4 - 1st 410 - 6th 521 - 6th 48.5% - 2nd 36.6 - 6th It looks like I battered a bad conference inside with some seniors but still can't shoot. TOP STAT PERFORMERS - YEAR 2 PPG RPG APG SPG BPG SG Howe - 16.6 C #54 - 9.8 PG #15 - 7.0 PF #5 - 1.3 PF #5 - 1.9 PF C Wilder - 16.4 PF #5 - 7.6 PG #22 - 4.1 PG #15 - 1.0 SF D Holmes - 1.2 C #54 - 13.3 PF C Wilder - 6.7 SF D Holmes - 2.8 SF D Holmes - 0.9 C #54 - 1.2 Howe took over more offensively than I expected considering his stats showed more of a defensive guy. Holmes seems like a solid contributor. Wilder should take off next year as a starter. Edited June 27, 2020 by MKnight82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKnight82 Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 CONFERENCE TOURNAMENT Finishing #2 in the regular season I got a first round bye. I beat Hampton in the next round, 98-57. I lost in the semi-finals to FAMU, 75-67. Disappointing finale to a surprising season win wise but hopefully all the wins gain me some prestige.
