Much love to Beilein but Im really excited for the change of pace of not getting beat up in the post and on the boards by so many teams. I know it is the era of the guard right now but damn I love watching some centers play basketball.

Dayumm the 2020 roster possibilities: Starters: C-Castleton, PF-Todd, SF-Livers, SG-Wagner, PG-Dejulius. Legit bench depth of Brooks, Johns, Dickinson, Zeb, and Bajema/Nunez. That's without adding anyone else to this roster.

That may be true and I'm not trying to slight anyone. There is so much room and size for different types of rotations/possibilities.  Let's say Johns keeps improving and rebounding the way he is, do you keep him off the floor? Maybe it's a Johns, Todd and Livers front court with Wagner and DD or Brooks. Everyone is 6'8 except for the pg. With Bajema ranked at 112, I expect him to make a jump by next year with added size and experience, so I think you have a legit 9 right now for next year.

Naaaah...but they'll get damn near equal minutes. I also think Livers comes back. Here are the minutes in my mind. 8 man rotation with 3 guys who get spot minutes.

C: Castleton (20)

F: Todd (28)

F: Livers (34)

SG: Wagner (30)

PG: Brooks/DeJulius (22)

-Reserves-

C: Dickinson (16)

PF: Johns (16)

SF: Nunez (6)

SG: Bajema (4)

CG: Jackson (4)

CG: DeJulius/Brooks (20)

Senior Eli Brooks coming off the bench?!?!?!? That's like fucking Matt Painter using Carsen Edwards as a 6th man.

3LI Brooks is going to be the man next year. Going to be hard to see him coming off the bench and only dropping 20 when he could've started and dropped 30

Does Hunter raise Michigan's floor or ceiling...or maybe both???

It sure is nice to have a rim protector like this. It will be very interesting to see how he advances offensively. Add some strength and agility to go with the maturity that will happen...improve the range of an already decent shooting touch...and we are in business.
