Agree.
If you’re playing to win 17 Games instead of 14 this season maybe give him Goodines spot in the rotation, but I don’t think that is a great approach. I don’t think there is enough upside from HW to take Goodine out of the rotation entirely. If we give up on all of the young high ceiling talent in the program (Goodine and Carey) then we are just sealing our fate for next season.
For those comparing HW to Sims, you have to remember that a big part of the reason that Sims was effective was because he had an all time great senior John Wallace alongside strong offensive pieces in Otis Hill and Todd Burgan with additional support from Cipolla and Janulis. Arguably two players (JDub and Burgan) at Hughes’ level or higher and two more (Hill and Cipolla) that were probably better than our second best weapon on this team and really no starters as poor offensively as Sidibe and Dolezaj.
