1. It’s going to be very interesting to see how Providence’s rotation shakes out as the season progresses. Much has been made of the depth the Friars will feature in the wake of the departures of the two man show that was Kris Dunn and Ben Bentil, but when push came to shove on the road against Ohio State Ed Cooley pared down the rotation significantly in the second half.
Freshmen Kalif Young and Maliek White both figure to see regular playing time because of their positions, but I’ll be interested to see how Cooley incorporates Alpha Diallo among a crowded off guard/wing rotation that will only get deeper when sophomore Drew Edwards returns.
