Old guy Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I do not know about you, but I expect to see Hines playing in the coming season, and possibly also Psimitis, the new Greek walk on. I think they are going to need to get them into play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are going to need to get them into play. Not to single you out - it feels like a number of people are forgetting how strange our rotations were the past couple of years. Quite a few teams hardly use their bench at all, and I'd say most use about 8 guys in a typical game. The conference championship teams basically played six guys plus <10 min for two more (manning/glaze). You can squeeze out extra minutes if it becomes absolutely necessary. We we can make it through the year with 9 scholarship players plus Hines. Obviously it's not ideal due to the possibility of multiple injuries and foul trouble. I see next season as an opportunity for the wheat to separate itself from the chaff. The guys who step up will get big minutes to prep for next year.

brianstl Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Crawford could have just rolled an ankle for all we know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, it sounds like his injury is more serious. He's getting an MRI to learn the extent of the injury, but he may have a torn hamstring. Hopefully, he gets some good news. I was really looking forward to seeing him play this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Zink, I agree, it will be an interesting year to watch, even if we do poorly as expected. Some of the kids will step up as you say and this will be interesting to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
