Barring any injuries, the starters opening the season to no suprise will be Ronald Moore, Clarence Jackson, Edwin Ubiles, Alex Franklin, and Ryan Rossiter.

Kyle Downy and Owen Wignot appear to be the front runners for coming off the bench for the shooting guard/small forward positions. Stephen Priestly and freshman O.D. Anosike are competing for available minutes in the frontcourt.

One thing that’s evident is the confidence placed onto Ronald Moore. Despite the hard work of incoming freshmen Jonathan Breeden and Denzel Yard, this is Moore’s team to run. Expect to see Moore play basically all forty minutes as he captains the Saints’ fast-paced offense.

One player to watch out for is German recruit Davis Martens. Although he must sit out the first 12 games due to NCAA regulations, Martens has the potential to be a serious contributor to this team in the second half of the season.
