Notes:
- I’ve broken the players out into three categories. The 2 and 3 spots (wings) tend to be interchangeable in Izzo’s system, as do the 4 and 5 spots (bigs).
- Austin Thornton (preferred walk-on) doesn't count against the 13-scholarship limit. I've taken Dion Sims off the chart for now.
- This assumes no one goes pro early. Adreian Payne is the obvious candidate.
- It seems highly likely that Alex Gauna will redshirt as a freshmen, given the glut of big men on the roster for the 2010-11 season (not reflected above, though).
- All scholarship slots are now filled for 2010. With Brandan Kearney's commitment, three slots are now available in 2011.
