This is my 2016-17 Hogs basketball dream team (plausible) ...

Obviously BP, Qualls, Jacorey, Bell, Durham, and Miles will all be gone by then ... this could happen ...

Starters ...

PF -- Ted Kapita, 6-8 sophomore ... rebounding machine, will be a physical enforcer inside

SF -- Melvin Frazier, 6-5 sophomore ... athletic with a high motor and good skill

C -- Moses Kingsley, 6-10 senior ... defense (rebounding, blocking shots, getting back in transition) must become his calling card, offense will be gravy

SG -- Malik Monk, 6-3 freshman ... potential to be a 1st-team AA as a rookie ... that's right!

PG -- Anton Beard, 6-0 junior ... Beard's a tough kid, but Fisher will push for a starting spot.

Bench ...

G -- Jimmy Whitt, 6-2 sophomore ... I have yet to see much facilitator in his game, but if he does have or add that element, he could easily be in that starting lineup.

G -- Jaylen Fisher, 6-0 freshman ... this guy makes winning basketball plays ... athleticism is not his calling card, but seeing everyone on the floor at all times makes it easy for him to beat you with the right pass at the right time ... could be the best PG we've had since Beck and Mayberry. Could make our transition game go through the roof.

G -- Daryl Macon, 6-3 junior ... scorer deluxe off the bench.

G -- Dusty Hannahs, 6-4 senior ... veteran who will provide shooting and leadership to make his last season count.

G/SF -- Terrance Ferguson, 6-6 freshman ... a luxury item to come off the bench to play either the 2 or the 3 ... do we really think we'll get him, Macon and Monk?

F -- De'Rron Davis, 6-8 freshman ... will push for starting position if Kapita or Kingsley slip up.

F -- Mitchel Smith, 6-9 freshman ... will need to add strength and conditioning, but will be a good one in time.

F -- Trey Thompson, 6-9 junior ... no clue where his game will be by then, but assuming he's back, he may be the 14th man on this team.

G -- Manny Watkins, 6-3 senior walk-on ... tough defender and glue guy -- he's the one who mentors and shows the young guards what it means to play in this system and be a Razorback.
