I actually think Duke needs a PG AND a SF. Or more accurately, they need a 3/4. They'll have a roster filled with 2/3 types along with 4/5s and pure 5s. Potentially nothing at the 1 and no big wing who can shoot (unless you believe in Power for some reason).
Yeah, I agree. The way I think about it is we need to have about 5 vets (returnees/transfers) to add to the 6 freshmen.
If it were up to me, the ideal balance of those would be:
* 3 point or combo guards
* 1 3 and D guy who can guard 3/4s, like you mentioned
* 1 big who can defend and rebound.
Of all the potential returnees that are already in our program, any of our core guards all count in that first box. Stewart counts in the last box. Power is the closest we have to the middle one, but would need to improve on defense a good bit.
