Gray should've been our starter 19-10 with him .655 win pct 22-15 without him starting .594% it was again that's on jones he has no clue our players were fine and we had plenty experience duke won it all last year with 3 freshman starters and 4 new starters in the lineup one of which was dismissed from the team mid-season so you could say 5 experience is no excuse for this team

I agree with this. He played some great games his junior year, like against WVA, but he got zero chance to make a meaningful contribution to the team this year and we needed to shake things up big time at the start and the end of the season. He was one of the better guys we had out there for the SEC tournament, but he still played limited minutes. He and Simmons had a nice two man game going early. The A&M run began as soon as Gray went tot he bench. I'm cool with rotating our guys, but it was baffling that they didn't go back to him once the wheels started falling off that game. He didn't reenter until 10+ minutes had passed and it was just a few minutes to halftime and we were down 20 or whatever it was. I question Jones' in game management, personnel choices, and ability to get the most out of his players.
