Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 1671281, member: 652"] That is my way of not blaming Cooney for all his PT. The coaches have betrayed him and put him up for more scrutiny by playing high 30 MPG instead of just high 20/low 30 MPG. JB had more options or more elite talent when he was dishing out guard minutes. Cooney played almost averaged 10 more MPG than Brandon Triche. Triche's Senior year was the only one he played over 30 MPGand he played 33.7 MPG. that was basically the same as Cooney's Sophomore year. On PER it tells you how valuable a player in relation to the minutes they play. PER tells us that Cooney isn't as efficient because he plays a lot of minutes. I am not going to hammer the kid for playing the minutes I am putting it on the coach to leave the kid alone. Syracuse whiffed on several guards Patterson/Joseph thus Cooney has had to play to much. Ergo the coaching staff has betrayed him. Don't take it literally read the context. [/QUOTE]
