Not sure what their rotation will be but did find this from their message board back on July 20th (poster was Max):
Potential depth chart for next season:
Pg: Dean, Isparo, Cooper
Small SG: Mabrey, Hunter, Yofan
Big SG: Safford, Bultman, Stewart
Wing F/PF: Lewis, Kotecki, Elmer
Center: Mirambauex, Morris, Potter
I don’t know how good we’ll be. Not a lot of star power, but probably the best depth and quality 1 thru 15 than Miami has had in many years.
Note: I'm not sure if Safford is available for them first semester. If not, that will be a significant lost for them but they do seem to have better depth according to the poster.

Wow. Lots of interesting discussion on that board. Looks like Morgan Stafford (15.5 ppg, 5.9 rpg, and 2.4 apg last year) was kicked off the team for academics today. There seems to be a lot of uncertainty surrounding Anderson Mirambeaux (the big guy we couldn’t stop last year) future with the team as well due to academics. We could be facing a team on Monday that just lost two starters in the last week. |

Looks like they’ll be short handed for the opener as reported by the editor of their student newspaper.

I would much rather play Miami-O at full strength. I don't want an asterisk by our W over them. But, if the Redhawks can't instill the importance of academics by a player's senior year, they have a pitiful program built upon unprincipled sludge. They will get no sympathy from me. Last year's Aces team had an average GPA 0f 3.1. Sounds good if you say it real fast. That most likely means that some were much higher than that and some were treading water in the mid to Deandre-like low 2s. That's how averages work. If the reports are accurate, Anderson Mirambeaux's meal efforts are stronger than his study efforts. That is a shame because he would have provided a good test for us in preparation for the conference season.

I wouldn’t count out the big guy (Anderson Mirambeaux) for the game against us next Monday. If you listen to the first minute of the recent Miami of Ohio press conference, their assistant coach says that “he is playing really well”. Then when he is specifically asked if Anderson Mirambeaux will be available, he says he’s currently not available but that “he will be in the rotation sooner than later”. With several days before the opener I wouldn’t be surprised either way if he plays or not. So we better be ready either way.

 We know for sure that Mirambeaux hasn't forgotten how to play.

We know for sure that Mirambeaux hasn't forgotten how to play. He certainly has a spatial ability that mountains over his scholastic ability. If he doesn't play it will be because Miami-O has calculated that beating UE won't require his attendance. I expect him to be suited up next Monday and paying his penance by studying during timeouts. In case you are wondering, he'll be the one sitting next to the travel tutor. |

Nobody asked me but walking right past a Sat-Sun to play on a Monday night ... I guess there were too many leaves to rake, huh?

Wonder if Rags will shake the starting 5 up tonight.
