Any early guesses on the starting lineup next year? My guess at this point would be Morgan, Johnson, Dunn, Blackshear and one of the two freshman bigs Bediako or Thomas. From what I have read Thomas is probably more ACC ready.

OAS, I predicted Johnson and Erin Houpt. We better not be done because most ACC schools grabbed 2 or 3 or 4 already out of the portal.

I don’t know what Tech will do, but Morgan, Johnson and Dunn in a three guard set. My inside game would have two forwards in Thomas and Blackshear. Better not be relying on those two inside projects/newbies.

This has to be right. The portal still is open for almost three more weeks.

Houpt would be a great addition. Another 40%+ 3-point shooter

Sydney Johnson from B.U. is a 5’9” Graduate Transfer. Looked at transferring to GT in the past. Played at Boston University. From The Lovett School, in Atlanta. AWARDS
• All-Patriot League First Team (2022)
• All-Patriot League Tournament Team (2022)
• Patriot League Player of the Week (1/31/22)
• All-Patriot League Second Team (2021)
• All-Patriot League Tournament Team (2021)
• Patriot League All-Rookie Team (2020)



If I had to guess, Sydney would be the next one to join the team.

This got pushed back a few pages, but I called Swartz last year and Johnson this year. That’s a 66.7% LOL. Jackson was told a day prior, therefore that doesn’t count. Ha!

Erin Houpt committed to San Diego St. Sucks for us but don't blame anyone that wants to live in San Diego
