I mean, Gillon got the majority of minutes in those games.  G'Town was almost all him (he started), St. Johns (started) and played 30, BC he played the majority of minutes.

You could just as easily argue that it was just stability - Howard was fine at home, awful away from the dome.  Those were usually better opponents though too.  Gillon was kind of crap away from home as well to be honest until NC State, and then Pitt was his only other decent away game that I recall.

That being said, I don't question the move one bit.  Howard proved repeatedly that he was just too erratic.  There was a spell where he couldn't catch the ball or dibble - you can't have him on the court playing like that.  It was a joke and somewhat painful watching him.

Gillon may have spent 84% of the offense pounding the ball needlessly, and not passing well, but he was far more stable out there and would occasionally go ballistic, something we would NEVER have gotten from Howard.
