Utah State Aggies (Last Year: 27-8, 14-2 in WAC)
2010-11 Projected Depth Chart:
F/C: Nate Bendall (Sr)/Morgan Grim (Jr)
F: Tai Wesley (Sr)/Brady Jardine (Jr)/Matt Formisano (Sr)/Ben Clifford (Fr)
G/F: Pooh Williams (Sr)/Antonio Bumpus (Jr)
G: Tyler Newbold (Sr)/Preston Medlin (So)/James Walker (Fr)
PG: Brian Green (Sr)/Brockeith Pane (Jr)/Leon Cooper Jr. (Fr)
Gone: PG-Jared Quayle, C-Modou Niang (transfer-Seattle Pacific), PG-Jaxon Myaer (transfer-MSU-Billings)
2010-11 Outlook:
Four starters return from last season’s team that was second in the NCAA with a 41.9 three-point percentage. Jared Quayle led the Aggies with 69 triples and has graduated, but will be replaced by the equally dangerous outside threat Brian Green who hit 53 threes on 50-percent shooting in a reserve role last season.
He will be joined on the wing by Tyler Newbold who connected on 42.1 percent from deep, and the team’s top defensive player, Pooh Williams. Preston Medlin gives Utah State another deep threat off the bench. JUCO transfers Antonio Bumpus and Brockeith Pane will be asked to provide some depth in their first year with the Aggies.
All-First Team WAC member Tai Wesley returns as the one of most versatile players in the conference. At 6-9, Nate Bendall is the tallest player on the Aggies’ roster and is coming off a productive first season after transferring from a community college. Utah transfer Morgan Grimm will add some depth up front along with Brady Jardine, who was a solid role player a year ago.
With Nevada losing Luke Babbitt and Armon Johnson to the NBA, Fresno State suffering the same fate with Paul George, and Louisiana Tech without their top three scorers from last year; the WAC title figures to boil down between Utah State and New Mexico State. But like the past two seasons, expect the Aggies to end up on the top of the standings and head to the tourney.
Player to Watch: Tai Wesley, F
Wesley defines the phrase “multi-talented.” The 6-7, 240-pounder led Utah State in points, rebounds and blocked shots while finishing second in assists and steals. He has improved his face-up game and is effective playing with his back to the basket which helps open up things on the perimeter for the Aggies’ deadly shooters.
