Subject: Shorthanded Due to Very Poor Planning

They cannot play that many minutes in less than two days against a very physical team with essentially 7 guys. SPU imposed their will today. Obviously the tougher team. So you don't fill the 13th scholarship. Joe Jones who wasn't even there today is and has been a walking injury. Williams is apparently so sick he can't make it to the gym for 3 days and they have no faith in Porter. Staveskie is in a boot, out of a boot, in a boot. Long has a knee but no surgery, just out 8 weeks plus. So you finally have a good team that is falling victim to a terrible job of planning and some questionable DNP's. And here I thought RW was just a bad game coach.

It may be legitimate to criticize RW for poor coaching. But to complain about poor planning because he didn’t anticipate 4 or 5 players being hurt or unavailable. Give me a Break!!!! Too much Reggie hating. A 13th player on any team is not going to make a difference I think Dunkin’s was fatigued/ worn down. He usually shows much more energy. This team is going to be good when 2 of their key players come back. Best point guard in years and best Big man in many years. And with the shooting of Gadsden, Siem, and Dinkens this team could win the conference

We all knew that Tre would be fatigued. The bench needs to step up. Also St. Peter’s was super physical. Not super hopefully if we can’t close out games and we only have a rotation of 7. You can’t let the other team go on a 15-0 run & expect to win.

The 13th scholarship doesn't necessarily go to your 13th best player. Go out and find another kid who can play or who might be a surprise. Injuries always happen that's why they give you 13 of them. Not to leave one open and give one to a kid with such a history of injuries. You're starting off shorthanded before you're shorthanded. That's the point!
