That seems like something SU should keep doing.  It seems to have worked so well in the past.  And those were on teams with 10-12 scholarship athletes. 8-9 is even more a risk.  Add in a injury or a frosh that doesn't quite pan out or a guy doesn't make an improvement, etc.  Just in the last three seasons, we've gotten next to no production from two guys and one who started but found the doghouse so quickly he transferred, too.  In 07-08, SU had 5 guards on the roster and both Devo AND rautins went down, Josh Wright did Josh Wright things.  SU had a not-awful team (9-9 in conference and 9th just like this last season, just no NCAA appearance) through the  contributions of freshman Scoop who wasn't supposed to get any minutes.

Playing shorthanded is just a huge risk and, ultimately, it makes me wonder why Syracuse can't get 3-4 star talent to sit on the bench, but UK, UNC, KU, etc have 4-5 stars riding the pine or playing sparingly.
