I agree that our kids are basically that, kids.  They are frail but have potential, while the so called cupcake teams we have played against have upperclassmen who are older and physically mature, and are more in sync because they have played together and not just figuring things out.

We might figure things out later in the season, but the losses will have piled up to keep us out of the tournament.  I think the best we can do is to continue playing everyone with the goal of getting them experience and confidence for the future.

This means scrapping Jim's usual 7 to 7.5 players.  I could deal with a losing season if we decided to play 10 to 11 guys to prepare for a better next season. Yes, the only reason Ajak, Bell and Taylor played major minutes was because of Judah being tossed and Benny and Hima being ill/injured, but those guys were able to show that they can contribute if given playing time.  This is not a good team right now and we will get crushed come ACC season, so just play everyone, especially the freshmen and allow them to strengthen their weak areas and reap the rewards in years to come.
