Those type of numbers would put him in the running for MVC POY and in the conversation for National award lists.

Did some research to put this into perspective.

If Ryan Taylor goes for 15+ ppg, 5 apg, and 6 rb per game.

Notables:
2015-2016:
MVC POY Fred Van Vleet - 12.2 pts, 5.5 apg, 3.2 rb
Ron Baker - 14.0 ppg, 3.2 apg, 4.8 rb
Wes Washpun - 14.2 ppg, 5.3 APG, 4.1 rb
Anthony Beane - 19.3 ppg, 1.8 apg, 3.8 rb
DJ Balentine - 20.5 ppg, 4.4 apg, 3.3 rb

2014-2015
Ron Baker - 14.7 ppg, 2.5 APG, 4.5 rb
FVV - 13.6, 5.2 apg, 4.5 rb
MVC POY Seth Tuttle - 15.3 ppg, 3.3 apg, 6.9 rb

2013-2014

Not a single player in those past 3 years which includes 3 people that have played (or will play) in the NBA, and several others that are some great players hit 15 ppg, 5apg, and 6 rb.

It is overly optimistic. I believe he is capable of the 15 ppg. The other categories probably not.

Posting this with having never seen Ryan Taylor play so it is just a WAG (Wild Ass Guess) made with Purple tinted glasses firmly on the noggin.

If he is the designated UE screen runner I think numbers of:

15.0 PPG & 2,5 APG are realistic.

I believe he is taller than Colt Ryan and definitely DJ Ballentine so rebounds might be slightly higher say 3.5 RPG plus add the fact that E-Mo won't be there grab the bulk on Defensive Boards like in the past few seasons so a few more will be available to all and hopefully UE realizes it will have to be a team crash the board effort.

DJ Clayton for ISUr (fills DAPs role)

Well, somebody for the Aces will average more than 15 per game. Only twice in Marty's tenure has he failed to have a player average 15+ ppg (Ely with 14.4 in year one and Ryan with 14.5 as a sophomore).

Someone has to score for Evansville, why can't it be Taylor?

Seriously though, they only have one returning player that played any meaningful minutes...ONE!

I'm guessing Taylor puts up some numbers.

Thik Bol was an excellent shot-blocker at the JUCO level and will see major minutes for a thin SIU frontcourt that lost Bola Olaniyan to 'Bama. Don't think Bol has a lot of offensive game, sadly.
The other newcomer Saluki fans are most excited about is true freshman PG Aaron Cook, seemingly one of the best recruits of the Hinson era (short list). Cook will likely back up senior Mike Rodriguez unless something weird happens as the season unfolds.

I got no problems assuming somebody at UE will score 15+ a game. Maybe 20+. That's the system they run. But I do doubt somebody averages 15+, 6rb, 5ast. I doubt that very much.

For WSU, it should be Landry Shamet. He's a 6-4, 190 lb RS freshman. He was rated #88 by Rivals coming out of high school and averaged 18, 5, and 4. He will likely spend most of the year as a shooting guard, but can also play PG and SF. He played the first three games (averaging 9 points and 3 rebounds) last year before a stress fracture in his foot ended his season.

Shamet is probably the most likely pick, but I'm cautiously excited about Reaves ... Watching his highlight video is just .. wow ... I know he was from a small school, so you take it with a grain of salt, but he has big time talent/moves IMO.
