It's called progression.. You may sit on the bench for 1-2 years but eventually you will contribute .. We aren't Kentucky

Its kind of hard to judge some of the players on this team when the head coach has no business coaching college basketball.

Who knows how certain players would be developed or not with a real head coach

I had little hope for this season after watching them play several games this year.

Besides a few good players, some of the team look really bad performing basic skills.
Defense at times is non existent.
