My theory is that the roster structure was intentional. I think the staff was rightly extremely excited about that class and thought they had a potential full starting five. But Klatsky/King/Bailey (and Archibong as a 3) didn’t involve any true combo guards. I think they thought they might have more of a traditional point guard with a shooting guard kind of concept. And then the year of klatsky/Plummer caused them to see the need to bring in Toole and Begley and play with bigger combos who wouldn’t get pushed around on defense. So Klatsky became a rotation combo, Koko played the 4, and King and Bailey never really got to play.
