[*]Some of y’all wondered why freshman F/C Wendell Lewis wasn’t getting playing time in the paint, what with State needing depth there. I coupled Lewis in with F/C John Riek and asked about them. “It’s tough to put some guys in who just don’t have an understanding of what goes on,” Stansbury said.

And whose fault is it that they do not know what is going on? The coaching staff......Hello.......What do they do in practice?

And Why is Osby not getting more minutes?</p>

but that's kind of a weak argument. One guy doesn't understand English at all. And the other guy is a two star true freshman.

Not his offense, his defensive switches, substitution patterns....anything. I just do not get it. But, I am not a coach.

Don't argue with fishwater about hoops. He is the bastard son of Bobby Knight and Dean Smith, and knows alot more about basketball than you think.

that he cant teach Lewis, who has played in 19 of 23 games, enough of our multi-faceted "motion offense" for him to be able to give us 5 minutes a game for Jarvis to rest...Kodi could play the 5 another 5 minutes...and Jarvis could easily play 30 or so a night, some nights less depending on how the game was flowing

i'd rather have lewis there for limited minutes.

i would, however, much rather see kodi setting the screen at the top of the key instead of jarvis. for the life of me, i don't know why we run that with varnado every time. </p>

Lets face it no one we put in is going to give us ****. Not Riek, not Osby, not Lewis.....no one. We have all seen them play and it is nuts to think they are going to come in and make us better at all. I like Osby and he busts his but when he comes in but he does some dumb stuff too. We have zero margin for error when we go to places like Vandy and Florida so I don't blame Stansbury for not playing those two very much. Now he should have played them both more against LSU at home.

He is just not a point forward, he thinks he is a guard. He plays pretty good defense, just tries to handle the ball too much, he is a forward that hustles, gets rebounds, blocks and has a good shot. Lewis needs a few more minutes and Riek speaks no English.

and Osby went 3 for 3 from the field with 5 boards, 1 assist and 1 turnover.
