Under the heading of 'Jus-Damn' goes this bad news....
University of South Florida head men’s basketball coach Amir Abdur-Rahim passed away on Thursday. He was 43 years old.
Abdur-Rahim was undergoing a medical procedure at a Tampa-area hospital when he died due to complications from the procedure, the school announced.
He and Golden were friends since their days as Assistant coaches in the SEC (aTm & AU).
The Gator's first game to kick off the season is vs USF in Jacksonville on Nov. 4th.
Martin had 32 in the scrimmage.Like everyone outside of the team, here's my latest WaG on the starters.
C Chinyelu - Condon, or maybe Mikic if he's progressed enough.
PF Condon - Alexis
SF Richard - Haugh
SG Martin - Brown
PG Clayton - Aberdeen
6th Man-A Aberdeen looks to be the 1st off the bench for the CG's.
6th Man-B Haugh looks to be the 1st off the bench for the bigs.
Keeping in mind that Aberdeen can also play SF and Haugh can also play PF/C.
If Condon goes from PF to C, then Alexis goes to PF.
If Richard goes from SF to SG, then Haugh goes to SF
The rotations are going to be in constant flux as the games go along it seems to me.
