I have taken on the unenviable task of ranking
returning players by position. One challenge is that on some teams which
individuals will start at what positions are not givens. Consider
Louisville. Brandon Jenkins might start at the 1 or the 2 after he recovers
from a broken leg. Although last year he played primarily at the point, this
year he’ll probably play the 2 as I’m betting that Coach Rick Pitino will go
with experience in the starting lineup, meaning Andre McGee will get the nod
over freshman Edgar Sosa.at point and Jenkins will play off guard over two
incoming freshmen. This first installment focuses on 11 returnees who will
likely start at point guard in the 2006-2007 season.
