I think I would have put him in about midway of the first half as noone was hitting from 3. he would at least open up the court for naz and others. would have been worth a try as we were already up by 10 so no pressure.Could have increased the lead . If he doesn't come out knocking them down sit him back on the bench. He is not a liability on the court as he plays good D also.

Days and graves 4 minutes is inexcusable

We’re trying to open up a lead and we don’t put in shooters

WE decided to keep in Mays, who might be the worst shooting 2 guard in the country. No reason we didn’t stick graves in for him. At least graves gives us a threat from outside

I didn't like the rotations yesterday. not because we lost or because we did not have wade but I started a thread 2 hours before the game stating that Graves needed minutes. We had problems going against Florida in both of the first two contests

Graves would not have gotten the attention in that zone until he knocked down two or three shots

A huge opportunity was missed by not playing him

I was really disappointed with the distribution of minutes.

That's coaching isn't it, but Benford may as well be promoted because that is what Alleva does around here. We get beat by Florida in football with everything on the line, we promote the defensive line coach to Head Coach, so not putting down on Benford but that's what I would expect from the clown show running our once great university. Hopefully Wade is some how prayerfully able to come through all of this.

Agreed I think that’s where we’ll miss Will the most. Still can’t believe Tre left his man for no reason

Inexcusable to let Mays throw up brick after brick and not let Graves in the game. That's where you need your actual head coach. Perfect storm of shite yesterday!

Tre left his man because he thought the ball was going to be shot or he thought the guy with the ball was going to drive the lane and he wanted to go for a steal and try to win game in regulation instead of playing fundamentally sound defense. He gambled at the wrong time and we got burned. Much like his rolling the ball down the court too far or the 3 he chunked in the corner way early in the shot clock late in the game. he just makes stupid decisions at crucial times. Yes, he is a great player but at some point you have to understand where you are in the game and play accordingly. If he doesn't go so deep in the lane he could have recovered in time to at least challenge the 3.
