I just realized, in two years (2014-2015), we could be starting an all Senior lineup made up of players that all have starting experience already.

1 - Carlino - Started every game but 1 since he was eligible.

2 - Winder - Started 15 games as a freshman.

3 - Haws - Started as a freshman and this year.

4 - Sharp - Started 2 games this year.

5 - Austin -Started 1 game as a Freshman



Overall, I think that will be a pretty good lineup, especially with two more years of experience under their belts.

But, the best part is...it's very possible that we will have that lineup available and be starting an even better lineup...

At the 2 and 3, we would have TJ Haws and Kyle Collingsworth in the mix, at the 4-5, we have Dalton Nixon, Worthington, we will still have Harward and we might (ok I'm an optimist) have Parker.

Senior laden teams have a tendency to go deep in the tournament. I'm very optimistic for BYU basketball over the next few years.

We will have an experienced team but Winder starts over Kyle Collinsworth I will be very, very surprised.



It seems like we will be a perimeter oriented team in the near future.

There should also be some quality depth with the incoming recruits.



My only concern is the play at center. I love Austin, but hopefully he can bulk up and develop some better post moves under Pope. I know he has the height, but i just don't see him as a true center. Sort of a very poor man's Dirk.

Dirk is Austin's idol, but Austin forgets what makes Dirk such a potent player is Dirk can hurt you down low too.



The 5 sit is a big question. But you don't necessarily need a 5 or back to the basket guy to score points in the paint. There are screens, backdoor passes, give and go's. Something, unfortunately, that is one if Rose's biggest weaknesses.
