Should Jarod Simmons turn out to be an impact player next season (a pretty good possibility), it seems to me that this will fundamentally change the job the team's guards have to do. Right now Penn has only two PF/C players. One is very good, the other is serviceable. If we get to a point next year where we have two very good PF/C players on the court together most of the time, that's likely to change the design of both the offensive and defensive schemes. Exactly what the coaches will change remains to be seen, but there's a chance that the skill requirements for our guards will change, and that a player with Jake Silpe's very particular set of skills (skills he has acquired over a very long career) will become more valuable to the team.
