Good analysis. We only have a little bit to go on, but we can start to get a picture of how this team might look and how the newcomers will integrate.
PG--I agree, though on Morgan I disagree about his quickness. I've been extremely impressed with his quickness everytime I've seen him. But I agree with your overall evaluation--don't think he's going to amount to much. I think Martineau is a true frosh and will go on mission after the season.
Wing--Mostly agree. I'm higher on Jimmer, though. I think he's going to be a star. His D will get better, and his O is already avg MWC wing player. Rose would be a good candidate to redshirt. He has potential but I don't see him getting a lot of minutes this year.
PF--don't quite see the talent in Collinsworth you see in him, but I like him and see him as a solid starter in his upper class years. JT might be the star of this team. He's going to explode on the MWC scene this year.
Center--mostly agree. I still see Plaisted as a MWC first team kind of player. I hope he can deliver, because if he does, this team could be very good. Miles will be nice for the Utah game especially, but Plaisted is the 5 on this team.

I don't dislike Jimmer but I don't think he becomes a key contributer until his D improves. I thought he had slow feet. Of course, maybe he was working hard in practice and had tired legs. That could explain his shooting woes. His b-ball IQ looks really high.
I think JT leads this team in scoring this year. He has an assassin's personality.
