Message: [QUOTE="SoBeCuse, post: 2206952, member: 796"] Unless you are actually Frank Howard or Jim Boeheim (assuming he wants FH starting); it's sort of ridiculous to guarantee that Howard starts. The best man will play according to what happens in practice and/or against any sort of good competition. Syracuse's guard depth and quality has been pretty poor the past few seasons so anybody FH has been going against in practice is not a fair test. We saw what happened to Frank last year against good competition. Gillon made SU an above .500 team. Thorpe if he signs will be given a fair shot. Boeheim may decide to start Frank after all in the beginning of the season. But, it is not at all out of the realm of possibility that Thorpe or somebody else plays the majority of the minutes at PG. Then there are the defensive woes and Frank has struggled there also. [/QUOTE]
