Key Reserves

SO Terrell Allen

Another transfer, this guard averaged just under double figures per game for Drexel. The combo guard also led his team in assists and steals, making his a solid backup for Taylor.

JR Chad Brown

The 6’9″ big man was second on the team in blocks, plays solid defense, and rebounds well. He can come in for Fall and the team won’t drastically lose their defensive edge.

SO Rokas Vlvydas

After sitting out last year after transferring from Texas Tech, the 6’11” big will look for minutes with UCF. His ability to stretch the floor separates him from the other frontcourt players on the roster.

SR Nathan Liang

The senior played in almost every game last year, and his senior leadership should be vital to this team. The problem will be with the transfers able to play his minutes are in jeopardy.
