Rotation at the guard spots

[needmorecowbell]

Rutgers was deep with guards this past year. JY, GB, PM, CM and MM. 5 guys, who all started at some point, rotating 3 spots. Montez found himself as the last option when Paul took more of a lead role. As we move into next year, currently we are looking to add two more Guards into the rotation - Jones and Miller. Pike was going to have a similar issue and Jones and Montez both would have been fighting for the same spot. If Jones develops as a contributor this will end up being a great move. His game can open up the court and he’s got length. I’m not saying Montez was forced out but he clearly was not given they role he wanted.

Regardless of portal activity we need Jones to really step up. Great recruiting win by Pikiell.
