Kansas and tech played 4 guards not by choice. Texas tech lost a lot from their final 4 run. Kansas losing silvio de Sousa due to off the court issues caused them to go 4 guards. They’re not a traditional 4 guard team. Same with tech. They lacked size compared to last season when they had a couple 6’10 post. Texas, Baylor, WVU, OU, TCU, and Iowa state use traditional lineups. K-state uses some 4 guard lineup But they big as well. Doubt you see either team rock a 4 guard lineup based on how they’re recruiting.
teams play 4 guards for stretches at a time. It’s not for the majority of the game. If you run into a team in which Ice at the 4 is a favorable matchup then I’m for it. But Ice at the 4 as a everyday lineup would be a terrible mistake, and quite honestly lead to losing basketball IMO. Based on how we’re recruiting suggest that’s an unlikely scenario as well. Small ball will definitely be implemented, just not Ice in the post.
