If he's so hurt that he can't play, he must still be saying he's good to go if the coach is running him out there.

Somebody has to own it, if your "star" player is injured and can't perform.  Play the next guy.

What about the heavy kid, Qadir White?  What are we waiting for?  He's been in the program for 3 years already.  Give him a chance.  Maybe he'll pancake some guys and help our inside running game.

If the kid is on a scholarship, and this season is already a lost season, then don't play injured guys if there are healthy guys you could be taking a look at.

Does anybody really disagree with that?
What is to be gained from playing injured players who can't make the grade?

What did Boeheim gain by playing Quincy Guerrier the last month of last season when he had a torn groin muscle that required surgery, and couldn't jump?  You've got Robert Braswell on the bench.  Why not play him instead?

When guys are HURT, give the next guy a chance.
