Wake Freshman JT Terrell
Wake Forest's 2010-2011 basketball season is slated to kickoff tonight at 7:00 when the Deacons take on the Quakers from D-III Guilford in Wake's lone tuneup before the season starts. The Deacons are only expected to start six starters to take on the Quakers who are coming off a 65-46 victory over the Italian Junior National Team on Tuesday. Plagued by injuries, the Deacons are only expected to field a roster with six scholarship players for tonight's game. Depth could be a very big concern for Wake as Guilford is a formidable opponent, finishing 3rd in the nation last year in D-III, and winning the regular season ODAC championship.
Click through for a more in-depth look at Wake Forest's roster headed into the 2010-2011 season.

Good preview – look forward to hearing the post analysis, although I won’t take too much stock in it based on all the injuries and the lack of depth.
I think Ty Walker could have a huge night against the size of Guilford if he is as improved as reported.
Also, JTT will be looking for an encore performance after dropping 47 in the Summer League against them. Let’s hope he does it again.

Offensive rebounding
Colorado was very undersized last season in their frontcourt. Add in the fact that they played a fair amount of zone and the offensive rebounding deficiencies can be explained. It will be interesting to see how much zone Bzdelik plays this season.
Jeff Goodman reports Ty Walker looks strong, which bodes well for rebounding. If he is ineffective again, Wake could have some trouble rebounding. Looking forward to some follow up after the game.
A story will be up shortly...
We won 84-44. Guilford wasn’t great but we looked okay out there.
They did manage to accrue 23 offensive rebounds though against us…
