Wednesday 8:30 on the big ten channel.

Nine new players between transfers and freshmen.  Lost two good ones in Naz and DQ.

Who starts ?    I'm thinking Covington,Akuchie,Rathan Mayes and not sure who else.  Dwayne Cohill was a former 4 star who played at Dayton and Tevin Olison put up big numbers at the naia level seem to give the Penguins some fire power.
Jamir Thomas has great size but coach seems to like those 6'5" to 6'6" guys that can play three positions.   Myles Hunter fits the discription and showed flashes last season.

Not sure about the frosh although Josh Irwin has an upper classmen body and can stroke it from behind the line.

 Hampton trasfer Chris Shelton Has two years of D1 experience and put up a high percentage from the 3 pt line. 
Hopefully Alex Vargo, Will Dunn  and Daniel Ogoro can take their games to a new level with last years experience. 

Grayson Kelly was hurt last season and Owen Long another tranfer that averged 19 a game at sub d1 level might get some minutes.

With so many guys with an expended(covid)roster it looks like there are more questions at this time.
 

ucfpengbuck:
Coach said today that Gurley, Lucarotti and Irwin will red shirt.  Probably more will be added with a 17 team roster.

Gonna be an interesting year. Lots of pieces to try and fit together.

Sounds like Covington, Akuchie, Rathan-Mayes, Cohill & Olison will get the start.

PSU is an 18-point favorite

That sounds like a 4 guard offense but might be their best option.  I'm thinking that might be a full court pressing line up.
