“We have 12 guys that are eligible to play, and they’re all good players,” he said. “It’s really close in terms of who can play what position. We have a lot of versatility. There are some things we know. We know Loudon’s going to be our center. We know Cole (Gentry) is going to be our point guard. We know Bill is going to be on the floor. We’re just not sure what position he’s going to be. We’re super thrilled to get Jaylon (Hall) back off the injury from last year. Then you throw in eight guys who are all competing, whether to start or play.”Nagy plans to play four of the eight players in that group. He said eight or nine of the players are capable of earning starting jobs, and the rotation won’t be any bigger than that. He’s not a coach who will use a rotation of 10 or 11 players.“I think it’s too hard to play that many guys,” Nagy said. “That’s why I wish we would have played a little better talent because it would have forced us as a coaching staff to make different decisions, but the way we did it, it was almost like hockey lineups: five guys at a time. We don’t play that way. We were just trying to get everybody time and see how they played.”
