Wonder how mcdowell would do if given the reins of the offense.

I thought Ben E had his best game as a mustang against TCU. He played hard, did some good things, and didn't make mistakes.

I see HF minutes getting distributed across the roster. Players will move around and McDowell / Tom will get more PT to give the starters a blow. The Greek will be the only big body we can put on the other team's big to hopefully keep a presence in the blocks so we don't get eaten alive on the boards.

Everything looks GREAT!!!-until we get in foul trouble or have an injury

For sure we have lost our margin of error. But with or without HF if we lose Semi or Shake to injury our season goes down the tubes.

Let's all pray we don't have a bad injury. So far Semi and Shake have shown the ability to limit fouls.

He doesn't actually play PG. he's simply a body that occupies the PG position. Contributes nothing in actual PG duties like creating opportunities for teammates, driving and dishing, or hitting shots. Just contributers close to nothing on offense. Only thing I'll give him is that he's somewhat decent on D

You really should remove the words "point guard" from any discussion of this team. We don't have one and there isn't one coming. Somehow, we manage. I am far more concerned about depth down low. You can knock Froling all you want (and I have). Although nowhere near exceeding expectations he was giving us some decent minutes. Those minutes need to be replaced somehow.
