    I simply stated it sucks that we can't get big enough leads and hold them until the end of the game to give the bench players PT.

    Usually these non-conference games are great times to get everybody PT because we should be blowing them out. It's tough to get them in the game when it's still a 4 point game with 4 minutes to play.
    Currently, 9 players are averaging double digit minutes. That is the deepest we've gone since Morgan's last year. Mcdoormat only had one team that went that deep. Aside from Sledge and Railey, there are 2 walk-ons available.

    Who do you want to play more minutes and why?

    Who? The players who aren't averaging double digit minutes.
    Why? Gametime experience.

    Am I demanding it? No, but its always nice to get the bench players some more minutes.
    Does it worry me that they aren't getting minutes? Not really, but it does make a case to show that we are **** pounding our non-conf opponents. (In this case, we aren't). I enjoy watching an *** beating with our second/third team in there to close out the last 4 minutes of a game. I don't enjoy watching our first team come down to the last minute against North Valley Central State Poly Technical Institute of South America.

    Look, I'm not losing sleep that they aren't. All I'm saying is it would be "nice" to get the bench players more minutes. Those guys are all one play away from having to step in and make an impact. I'd rather them be game ready when/if that happens than throwing them into a close game against a Big 12 team.
    When Prepared, Fear No One.
