Back to the point guard situation

I have been thinking some more about point guard. Hagins, Johnson, Burns and Ruttley are all advertised as point or combo guards, and Osse played a little point for us year before last and did OK.  And that is not even counting the walk-ons. So we are pretty well fixed as to depth. How good the top couple of players are remains to be seen. I think we would be in fine shape if Josh were the starting point all year, but I just think we would be in better shape with him playing most of his minutes at SG. So if he gets beat out at point, that is a good sign. Similarly, we have enough depth at SG that if Josh were forced to play point exclusively because of injuries, we still would be OK.

My best guess (with not much information to go on) is that the expectation is for Johnson to be the man at point, but that may change as things get going.
