Having a senior PG / experienced starter available > Battle attempting to run the offense, playing out of position. Having a senior PG / experienced starter available > playing a true frosh who is 1-18 from the field in two games. The impact of Frank's absence is also exacerbated by the other two PGs also being injured at the same time. Really, to suggest that the team isn't hurt by his absence is nonsense. Your straw man about "...all this team needs is Frank back" completely misses the indisputable point that the team with Frank is better than the team without him. Warts and all. Having alternatives to Frank [Carey's speed / scoring, Washington's steady lead guard aptitude] are what will stabilize the PG position this year, and make the team stronger than last year. [/QUOTE]
