Andre Jones, Maurius Hill, Stetson Billings, Jalen Jackson, Shandon Goldman. The 3 is the most generic of the positions, and thus usually has the most depth. Several of these could be sliding over to the 4, which was almost interchangeable with the 3 last year. My guess is that Maurius and Jalen will get the most minutes at this slot, with a lot of mix and match. We may see them on the court together a lot of times. It will be very interesting to see how the newcomers fit in. I am not convinced Goldman will be a 3 at the D1 level, but that is how he was advertised. Jackson will probably be on the floor in tandem with someone smaller, and thus theoretically at the 4, but again, designations mean little in such matters.
If I have to guess, Maurius will start at one of the positions, mainly because he is a dependable and versatile player, even if not the most talented of this group. One benchmark for this team: if Jones starts at any position, expect this team to be really good, because he will have beaten out a pretty fair ball player.
