stubbs' firing made me say screw butler's depaul game. have too much to do anyway.

so butler has multiple shot makers, a physical pg that can't shoot, suspect decision making even with him sometimes, true post presences, not monsters on the boards, question marks at back up pg, bench period imo.

hoyas need to establish paint offense, play off that vs their gapped man. hit boards, run and press selectively (again their decision making). penciling in epps for at least 20. need 15 from someone, 14 or so from another guy. also switch defenses regularly...again exploiting decision making.

final outcome? hoyas by 5
