Cooke Suspended Today

Maybe we could try going small once in a while like we did before McKay was eligible. Might be okay for spurts.

Going small at times isn't a bad idea. I'd be a hell of a lot more comfortable if Naz Long were healthy and still playing this year, or Nader was shooting better than 12% from 3, or McKay were putting the bunnies through the hoop instead of off of it. Right now, though, it's kind of scary. Remember, we were forced to go small for most of the first half against Texas Tech with Niang in foul trouble. It wasn't pretty.
 
If Ashton is able to come in and spell Niang and McKay, then yes, this is a WTF. But Ashton is behind Cooke on the depth chart, which means he'd come in and spell Morris, Thomas, and Cooke. Means even with Ashton playing we're still up Schitt's Creek without a paddle in regards to defense because we're still forced into Niang and McKay playing passively to prevent fouling.

Or we go small? I think we could make our depth chart work to rotate for the bigs.
 
If that's true, let him go....he is not entitled to anything, put in the work and earn it.

Remember the good days, when he'd come off the bench with a ton of fire and energy? I remember thinking, "Let's get that kid some more minutes" He's still the same player, just has to get his head in it. I'm still a believer that he can help us, but he has to want to be "US"
 
Welp im keeping my expectations reasonable for Ashton today, 20 points 10 boards... you know like every roleplayer has against us.
 
Wouldn't surprise me if 3-4 guys transfer out of the program. The program is a really different one now. I'd also bet that Otz is gone as soon as he can find a suitable gig.
 
Tine for Ashton to seize the opportunity. He can't be worse than Cooke right?
 
Might be a blessing in disguise. Might actually force Prohm to play Carter or Ashton a few minutes. Gasp! They might actually make the most of it and show CSP that hey we can play a few minutes...it's ok..the world won't come crashing down.

They couldn't even crack the rotation against mid and low major teams we played in Hilton, plus CSP has seen them play every day in practice. I'll trust his judgement.
