[quote="Wufan"]He also started 8 or so games for the Shockers as a sophomore before breaking his finger. That team went on to the final four. He played out of position last year and did well in every facet except scoring. If he plays the 3 this year, as is the plan, he will be dangerous. Not all-valley, but very effective.

Dangerous on the nights he is hitting. I suspect that if he is permanently moved out of his spot at TPF (tiny power forward), his average minutes could go down significantly. Some nights he just won't be hitting. If on those nights he isn't grabbing rebounds and loose balls in the paint either, what will his purpose be?
One of Evan's greatest assets are his lack of turnovers. He was like 2:1 last year. He is a smart passer, great rebounder for his size, great post defender for his size, and the best guy in the nation in going after loose balls. If he's positioned outside the scrums he usually frequents, his contributions to the team drop dramatically.
I think he could still be playing TPF this year, as insane as that sounds for the reasons mentioned. I have no faith in his shooting consistency and if you're not a good shooter by now...
