1. Who would you say the starting 5 is on Thursday for the exhibition?
2. With Bone seemingly the starter at PG over Turner, and recent talk about Turner primarily playing off the ball, will Parker be the backup PG or Turner?
3. From various reports it sounded like Mostella A. Didn't start against Davidson and B. Didn't play all that much...has he still not bought in or developed enough defensively for Barnes' liking?
4. Bowden was a guy I thought was a year away, but a report had him going 4-4 from 3 off the bench against Davidson, with that plus the info about Mostella, is Bowden likely an every night rotational guy this season?
5. What do you think the ceiling is for this team, do you think if all things go right winning 18 games is possible, the SEC is pretty bad outside of UK?
6. Has Alexander stepped things up a bit recently, I know there was a lot of talk Williams was possibly the starting 5 but I believe Alexander got the nod against Davidson.
7. Can you give your opinion on a positional depth chart: is Hubbs primarily gonna be a 3 or 4, same for Schofield, do they prefer Fulkerson and Evans at the 4? Thanks.
8. On the recruiting front, anything on the Stokes front? He's taken 4/5 officials and it looks like UNC has moved on but I could be wrong there...have you heard of any timeframe?
9. A bit of speculation on my part, but with the talk of Tennessee liking the idea of a free scholarship in spring or adding one in the '18 class...to me going back to #3 it's hard to see Mostella here much longer if he's not getting PT this season. Even if he does, transfers are so common now it would seem to me you still push just as hard for Stokes and assume another spot likely comes open in the spring which you could use then or save for '18...IMO the likelihood of zero attrition is very low.
10. Little more speculation on my part, but given all the reports from various places throughout the offseason, if 1 person was to redshirt who do you think would be the likeliest? IMO it's Jalen Johnson, but curious to your thoughts on that?
