Name the only person who was able to consistantly hold Michael Jordon to under 20 points a night. The answer, Dean Smith. Many claim Smith is one of the all time greatest coaches in the game, but Jordon didn't show his true capabilities until he was no longer playing for the dean.

I think the same might be true of some current stags. Too many substitutions and not playing long enough to get in the flow of the game has hurt some stag players offensively. But they have been kept fresh on defense. You can't argue with success, if the team keeps winning no one will question TOT's coaching decisions. Losses to Rider, Siena and Niagara at home, leave Tim open to questions.

JCM, I cannot disagree with you, the Stags COULD be better with less substitution...... but I also cannot agree with you either, we COULD also be worse off.

If we had a stud starting lineup with 2-3-4 All MAAC players, I would agree with you 100%..... play them all 30+ minutes, but we have a bunch of young players that are trying to find their offensive games, along with some experience players that have limitations to their offense, but have great intensity and leadership.

I think if you look back in history you will see that TOT has always played his All MAAC players 30+ min per game.
