One wrinkle with the composition of the portal additions is it might be a little tougher to find minutes for Walsh this year. I'm assuming House and Stafford both will play heavy minutes, and then if you also have Walsh in there (subbing in for Steffe, for example), that's three really small guards, which could be a problem defensively. I know Southern played Mullins, Tatum and Young at the same time and won a few ballgames, but ... those guys were barely human. 😀 

I'm as excited about Walsh as the next guy and think they'll find a way to work him in (for example, maybe Walsh plays the 2 when either House or Stafford sits), but something to think about, especially considering they also need to find minutes for Mayo at the 2 or 3.

Otherwise, my main question continues to be who is going to guard big wings/athletic forwards other than Sykes, who would need to improve quite a bit to be a 30-minute a game type dude. Whether it's Prince Aligbe or someone else at the 3 or 4 spots, hoping for a helpful piece to help solidify this roster.

Steffe will play some 1 as well. Is Haines ready for minutes before Walsh? If not, than expect Steffe at the 1 more and Walsh plays.

Sykes reminds me of Owen, come in to give some hard nosed energy minutes twice a half.
