Starting lineup

Post by Terry Webster »

Since this game is for all of the marbles, does LB start an all senior lineup on Sunday?

3 of 5, no way starting all 5....this is a must win with a conference championship on the line. We gotta come out hot in and put a beat down on Tulsa and get ready for the Conference and NCAA tourneys.

You're joking, right? Why would we start all seniors if this game has significant implications? A starting 5 of Dunleavy, Mudiay, Manuel, Cunningham, and Yanick would not be competitive.

SMU basketball teams have typically started the seniors regardless of ability on senior day. With the implications of this game being so big and the unselfish attitude the team seems to have, it wouldn't be surprising if Dunleavy and Mudiay said that they did not want to start.

I say they start and a time out is taken in the first 30 seconds and the others are substituted.

Agree - LB will start the seniors, at the very least the scholarship seniors. Hopefully he tells them to feed the bigs anyway :D

It's a really important game, seems like the kind of situation where you could not risk spotting the team between 2-6 points.

Two of the seniors will be starting anyways. The issue is with Mudiay and Dunleavy.
