Plus, March should be open for a family vacation.

With the loss of Coston and Mara could the power forward be more of the traditional back to the basket power player?Sounds like Phillip Thomas could be a good fit in that spot.

Right now I would look at
Waters and Melvin Jones as starting gaurds with Guede and Harriel giving them backup minutes.
Nelson would be the starter at SF with Guede also backing him up.
Phillip Thomas and Max Jacobsen at the 4
Jones and Thomas splitting time at center with Thomas maybe getting some minutes at the 4.
What is the status of Nathan Lozeau?

I would expect Guede to start over Jones, but aside from that I agree with your projections.

Another walk-on for next season?

A post from the o-live forum stated, "I just heard that Kenton Bansemer from Brookings-Harbor, OR was asked to join the team as a walk-on at PSU. 6'8" 215lbs avg. 16 pts 10 rebs and led the team in asst. and block shots. That should be a pretty good addition to the team."

The only info I can come up with is on his AAU team's (Oregon Rebels) website. it has a space for notable alumni which included:

DIV PLAYER SCH/YR
I Kenton Bansemer Portland State Univ. '09

His team won the Oregon 4A title with a record of 28-0. Sounds like a great walk-on addition to the team, if true.
