Predicting the Utah State 2016-2017 basketball depth chart

Isaiah J. Downing-USA TODAY Sports

Utah State head coach Tim Duryea has got a talented group of players coming in 2016-2017 season, but Utah State lose Lew Evans, Chris Smith, and Darius Perkins.

Duryea said this about Norbert Janicek, "Norby gives us an inside scoring presence. He is a very skilled scorer in the post and can use either hand and can go over either shoulder," Duryea said. "He also has the ability to step out and make shots all the way to the 3-point line.

"We are excited to have Norby and know that his best basketball is well ahead of him and hopefully we can develop him into a top-notch Mountain West center."

From this comment and looking at the roster, I see that Duryea will go with 1 Center, 2 Forward, 2 Guard approach in 2016-2017 season which makes predicting the depth chart possible
