Message: [QUOTE="dollarbill44, post: 1236672, member: 686"] I have a real problem with the first statement in bold, because I think what most of us arguing for using a deeper bench are suggesting is playing more guys [I]throughout the entire season[/I], not just in December against the cupcakes. If Riley had gotten 5+ minutes a game against the likes of Louisville, Marquette, UConn, ND, etc, I think he would have been far more ready to play against Butler and may have played even better than he did. I don't think anyone here is pinning the loss on Riley. As far as him playing pretty well "all things considered" - what does that mean exactly? Is a lack of readiness what is being "considered" here? A lack of familiarity with the rest of the regulars? What exactly are you considering? [/QUOTE]
