[QUOTE="MtnWasp, post: 829398, member: 4110"] Those were the losing teams that didn't have anyone else. But with the last two winning teams our coach went with the veterans. Strudivant gradually took Bubba's role. But Coach has valued guys who do not break down on either end. Assignment/rotation lapses on defense and turnovers on offense got guys the hook. Cremins used to leave guys in through their errors to allow them to figure it out. I don't see that from Pastner when there are other options. Pastner runs a tighter ship than that. I think that it will be the same this season, especially when we hit conference play. If a sweet-shooting Freshman can avoid youthful mistakes, then I'm sure that they will get the nod. But I do not see our coach enduring growing pains while Khalid Moore or Bubba (who will not make many mistakes) sit. I know that it is typical for fans to mostly think about offense when they try to prognosticate. But I don't think our staff will share that bias. I think we will try to get back to playing top level team defense. To me the biggest question for the upcoming season is, will it be Sturdivant or Smith, or will it be Sturdivant AND Smith? Are they competing for time or do they play together? [/QUOTE]
