Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 253698, member: 837"] I'm not sure I agree with either of the points in this post. Southerland playing above his level? Based on what? All he did this year was improve his defense and rebounding and score 7 ppg in 16 mpg despite a massive shooting slump mid-season. If all he is next season is slightly more consistent, it's not crazy at all to think he could score around 10 ppg in 25 mpg and shoot more like 38-40% from three. I mean, he averaged close to 9 ppg in his last eight games as it was. And why does everyone associate redshirting with "not developing"? If Noel comes here (the only way he redshirts), Keita's still practicing vs. Noel, Xmas and Coleman every day and working on his body, he's just not participating in the 35-40 games they play. Game minutes are valuable, but I don't see any reason he'd regress in that scenario. [/QUOTE]
