![]() Crowl took a big step forward in his second season and if he can start draining threes at a little bit higher rate and gain a little more strength in the post, he has the makings of an all-conference player.Longwood men’s basketball coach Griff Aldrich announced the addition of three new staff members to round out his staff heading into the 2022-23 season.Īssistant coach Quinn McDowell joins the Longwood bench, along with special assistant to the head coach and director of recruiting Graham Bousley and video coordinator Brian Smith. The third, and final, settled spot in the starting lineup is Steven Crowl at center/second big man. With Carlson, it would be great if he could rediscover his long-range stroke that abandoned him during his sophomore season. It would be great if Wahl could develop a more reliable jumper/three pointer because he does not need to be guarded outside of the paint right now. ![]() Tyler Wahl is going to be the starter here and, more likely than not, Ben Carlson will be the primary backup. This, like point guard, is a position that is pretty set in stone. He shot poorly and wasn’t particularly solid on defense, but there is potential there and, presumably, another offseason to work on his game will help.ġ - Jordan Davis/Ben Carlson (depending on matchup) For the entire months of February and March, Gilmore played two (2) minutes and the last time he scored a point was Jan. However, Gilmore needs to improve greatly this offseason in order to get more minutes. You’ve also got Carter Gilmore, a personal favorite of mine, in the mix. If they need to go big and focus on rebounding and defense, then maybe Ben Carlson is an option.īen Carlson mixing it up down low. If they want to go bigger but retain some shooting versatility, Markus Ilver could play. If they want to go small, Davis is an option here. This is an interesting position because the Badgers could go a couple of directions here. Gard has a number of combinations that he could go with, although none of them are exactly ideal.Īgain.an impact transfer is pretty much mandatory here. There is also a world where Bowman plays here and Davis moves up to the wing/small forward position. Lindsey is basically an unknown quantity at this point and true freshman Connor Essegian out of Indiana will most likely take time to adjust to Big Ten basketball. Could Neath live in the gym this summer and improve his three point stroke to be as good as/better than Brad Davison’s? Sure, maybe, but I wouldn’t count on it. Without one, the starter is.Jordan Davis? Neath? Isaac Lindsey? There aren’t any high-quality options on the roster currently.Ĭould Davis take a big leap this offseason a la his brother? Sure, maybe, but I wouldn’t count on it. This is a position where an impact transfer would be welcome with open arms. He had his worst shooting season and worst assist rate of his career, but he massively cut down on his turnovers. There is a reason I didn’t mention his offense as it stunk against Iowa State and, quite frankly, the entire season. Jahcobi Neath filled in at point guard some when Hepburn went down in the NCAA Tournament and his defense was solid. There are legitimate questions on if Bowman can stay healthy, but he is a good shooter and is familiar with Gard’s system. If Lorne Bowman returns to the team, which head coach Greg Gard is hopeful happens, he can be a valuable backup floor general. However, the minutes behind Hepburn ARE up for debate. (Also - kick game ) /9L4GYUokw8- Matt Foster KETV March 26, 2022 Told me that he thought he fractured it when the play happened - same ankle he broke during his freshman year of football. No walking boot on injured left ankle - turned out to be just a sprain.
