New starting line up

[40 Cal]

Let just make some quick changes and see how they go.

Start
Blair
Cade
T Neal
Drew
CJ

Just try it, it takes pressure off of Cam and Nick and make Pledger go back to his real postion and brings energy off the bench.

Fine with me. Each one of those guys brings something to the table. Pledger, Cam and Nick are not getting it done.

Although I dont think it's all Pledgers fault. He should not be playing PG.

I have to believe Capel properly evaluates the players and selects the best five to start. If he doesn't, OU has much bigger problems than selecting a staring lineup.

Unless we play zone I really don't think T Neal can keep up with most D-1 3s.

 

[CMSOONER]

I don't think we need to make big changes to the starting lineup. I think we just need to start Blair at the point and get pledger back to just being a 2 and hope it gets him out of this slump. I think getting CJ and Neal in off the bench is a good idea. I've been quick to jump on Nick, but this has been two really tough games in 24 hrs with no time to really adjust. I think as the next few games play out we'll have a better idea of what level players are going to contribute.

I think need CJ in there to rebound early.

I think he would do better against 3's than he would against most D1 4s. Tyler got absolutely abused by UVA's bigs on the defensive end.

I say try him at the 3 and play zone.

Good thing we arent playing a D-1 team tomorrow!

Play Neal 35 minutes!

Were we watching the same game? Neal didn't get abused by the bigs anymore than any of the other posts. He just needs minutes and experience. He has better offensive skills than the other posts and is smarter. He needs to play alot.

I think Neal might be just as athletic as Clark right now and he's a lot more aggressive with the ball. Cameron Clark hasn't shown anything one either side the last 2 games.
