Former Duke standout and current Stanford coach of course.

Well, Wojo is calling this a transition season and rightfully so. Lots of turnover, little experience, a new staff and a roster short in numbers and stature along with not having Fischer until 12/16. Going to be a very interesting season to watch and see how things play out. Certainly there is talent with 7 guys having been RSCI Top 100 rated (Anderson, Taylor, Burton, Du Wilson, Johnson, Fischer and Cohen) along with 2 guys were generally Top 125ish in De Wilson and Carlino. Only Dawkins (er, Dawson...:p) was not more highly rated, but he obviously has talent. Lets Go Warriors...!!

Does it really matter where they were ranked at this point? The only ones that have done anything of note at this level are Burton and Carlino.

"Mayo's departure also means the Golden Eagles will have just two seniors on the roster, point guard Derrick Wilson and forward Juan Anderson.”

For some reason I thought Carlino was a senior………..

Oh that’s right…he is!

Oh that’s right…he is!Actually, he is a graduate student as was Trent Lockett. Otule was not a graduate student as he went for an extra undergraduate degree I believe.

Yeah but when talking about basketball (or any other athlete) they talk about it in terms of their eligibility.

In that respect, Carlino is a senior.

[Mark Miller]

Burton's minutes were cut? Must have missed that.

[Nukem2]

In that respect, Carlino is a senior.;) FWIW, the roster at MU's gomarquette.com website lists Carlino as GS (i.e., Graduate Student)...it is what he is.

LOL...I have literally never seen that before.

[MUMac]

LOL...I have literally never seen that before.

Yeah, Lockett was listed as a SR. I only recall listing of grades for athletic purposes. Maybe a RS in front of the Red Shirts, but that is the only qualification/designation I have seen.

Still, for Hunts purposes, Carlino is a SR. He missed that one.

To be fair, Hunt may have considered Carlino to be a graduate student... :)

To be fair, Hunt may not even know that Carlino is on the team ... :cool:

LOL, that certainly could be a possibility..... :)
