Josh Scott was one of the greatest Buffs of all time. His consistency, level-headedness and big-game play made him the perfect leader for the Buffs. His basketball IQ, polished skill and defensive ability made everyone around him better. In every sense of the word, Scott was and is irreplaceable.
Tad Boyle knows Scott’s role cannot be recreated atom for atom. As such, the Buffs will no longer start multiple big men, as they had with Scott and returning fifth-year senior Wesley Gordon. The new Boyle Ball will involve two guards, two forwards and a lone big man. It will heavily emphasize shooting, frenetic defense and fast breaks.
