welsh = starting PG

[blacksuit]

He's got two starts, two wins. 7 assists and no TOs today. Last season it seemed that the future of this team was Welsh at the 1 and Beverley at the 2. It looks like we're headed that way.

Welsh played freakin awesome today and made some sweet passes........I would love for him to take over...with Ervin coming in every now and then for a breather......i feel very comfortable with him at the point

Welsh is the man at point. It was obvious last year but Heath was too nice to pull Ervin. It took Pel 3 games to realize what Heath could never figure out...that Ervin was costing us games with his turnovers and poor decisions.  I'm just thankful that Welsh is coming on with Missouri coming up. Remember how horrible Ervin did against their press last year.

I just think Ervin will be better off the bench.  He had six assists and 0 turnovers today to go with 2 of 3 shooting.

Also I think he does better at 2 guard. He is a decent shooter and a good defender...he just is not a good ball handler against pressure and makes poor decisions with a lot of his passes.

I LIKE WELSH AT THE POINT.  IT'S A GOOD FIT.

he will get some help atd the pointd when Rakestraws had gets better. :razorback:

[The Realist]

Welsh played on a high school team that is better than half the SEC so it shouldnt be a surprise that he is a gamer

HUH? are you saying NR will play some PG? you're crazier than bat crap.

lol

Welsh gets my vote for starting pg. Made some good decisions against D State. Granted, that is not SEC but a very good start to show what he has.

Will Rakestraw play when his hand heals, or will he end up redshirting like Sanchez?  We know that Britt and Patatsia aren't redshirting, and that Sanchez is, but what about Rakestraw?

No idea, but he might play cause we're short on guards.

good to see, i thought he should be starting all along. :razorback:

Ervin has been a big part of the reason for our poor play ever since he got here.

He has a head too big to fit into BWA and is in love with bringing the ball down the court dribbling slowly and having everybody watching him.

Stan Heath is gone because he could not see that.

Ervin is not a starting point guard and will never play in the NBA.

My wife stopped going to games with me and stopped watching out of town games with me on TV over the last few years because I was screaming about how big an idiot Ervin was and how the fact that Heath had him at the point was clearly an indication of Heath's lack of the ability to judge talent.

It does not look like it took Pelphrey too long to figure that out.

I like that Pelphrey kid more every game.
