This year’s Zag team has an embarrassment of riches. Two all-conference, fifth-year senior point guards, three supremely talented and athletic off guards/wings, three bigs with NBA potential along with Larsen and Ayayi who’d both be starting for about 300 other D-1 schools. 9 of these 10 players have significant D-1 court time with Ayayi being a member of the FIBA U-18 all-tournament team. So where does this leave incoming freshman Greg Foster Jr. and Filip Petrusev? In my humble opinion, both will redshirt this season.
Greg Foster Jr., despite the pedigree (his father played in the NBA for 13 seasons and is a current assistant coach with the Milwaukee Bucks) and great physique should be an easy redshirt decision.
