Nervous for them until we show we can win a game and not play stupid. I expect we’ll see some changes today. I think Jackson should start.
Other programs have full page photos of their starters . They proudly show them off. We start Haywood and Ugboh and after several miscues, replace them with Idowu and Jackson. Could we just not start off with Jackson and Idowu , Joiner, KES, and Rashal and keep them in for a while? I would not wait long on Williams either if Joiner keeps dribbling at his feet. Would be nice to see a healthy Earley soon also. I've seen Urbancic shoot and I would at least like to see him with a little PT . He may just be too young but worth some time. Richie is another who has a chance to come around. He could be really good or a Zeke Moore....who knows??????
Richie seems to be the kid who needs to shoot a lot to be effective. If he hits the 1st one ride him til he dies. If he misses, yank him as I don't see him being effective. The few minutes he had last weekend were largely ineffective. His shot looks decent but they weren't falling. Again, he's one of those volume shooters and I'm not sure he plays the type of defense needed to get volume minutes at this point.
