A lot easier to look at like...

PG - Pasha Wing - 2 of Bedford, Schutt and Johnson (all will play probably close to equal minutes) 4 - Lawal 5 - Hansberry I would have Dorn above Gurdak at the moment. It's a lot harder to know how an 18 year old will adjust to college than a foreign 22 year old. Gurdak may ultimately win the job outright or eventually become the guy later in the season, but it's pretty telling the staff went and got 2 grown men to play center. You dont spend resources it would take to get a 22 year old with professional experience to have them be the 3rd center All 3 will play, just like the wing spots. I think Hansberry will outpace both in minutes played, but I would expect around 12 to 15 mpg from Dorn and 5 to 12 from Gurdak. PG will be about a 60/40 split between Pasha and Hammond with Bedford getting emergency PG duties. If they add the INTL wing, then I would pencil him in for close to 30 mpg with serious hits to Schutt and Bedford's minuted. I'm not expecting Sincere Jones to factor into the rotation for a while. Hansberry is the backup 4. Johnson played 4 in emergency situations last season. Jones can sit and learn.

If Hawthorne comes aboard, is he in the Dev/Sit category?

That depends on who else we get.
Chris ColemanAdmin 05/02/25 08:29 AM ET
Feels light with wings. I would think we want the competition
st_andrew 05/02/25 09:37 AM ET
Could be, but I don't think we are getting a top 75 player to be the 5th.
Chris ColemanAdmin 05/02/25 09:50 AM ET
Based on our current lineup projection...

Rotation

How much lineup flexibility will we have?
bzbaker429 05/01/25 09:52 AM ET
Thinking Gurdak is in the mold of a bigger PJ Hall with room to develop.

if we can lock down a legit acc caliber starting 2 guard...
bjw810 04/30/25 11:25 PM ET
Would rather have legit SEC quality guard
tallahasseehokie 05/01/25 02:29 PM ET
So a legit acc guard. **

I don’t know much, but I reckon that’s out of the picture.
SC_Hokie 05/01/25 12:21 PM ET
??? Yea, that Cattoor kid was absolutely horrible at the 2/3. Never
ancient alien 2018 05/01/25 07:06 PM ET
I’m confused by what you mean by that?

It’s OK. You can spread the installment payments over time.**
