RE: Time for a new poll

[Michael Ryan]

No player can gain good experience running an offense while redshirting.
Playing against your teammates in practice and in live games are two
different things. Chadd should already know the basics of a
Huggins/Peters Offense, having been in the system for a year. Experience
in games is what every young PG needs. 

Every team wants guys to fill it up from outside. That's part of the
reason the Bobbitt, Field, White and Kirkland are on the team this year.


...and I don't think Field wasn't recruited because of his ability to
palm or dunk the ball.

Does anybody know if Field can even dunk a basketball.  
I heard a rumor that said his hands might be to small to
palm the basketball.  

Just a quick thought about Chadd's injury.  This could be a blessing in
disguise for him.  
Huggins has been praising Nick Williams since he recruited
him last year.  Nick was going to start from the minute he walked on
campus.  If Chadd and the coaches decide to 
redshirt him along with Souleymane, he would be our
starting point guard his junior & senior year.  He would
have 3 years of experience running huggins offense.  

It looks like Joe Crawford will be on UC campus this weekend. This is a
huge target for us in my eyes.  I think Huggins wants him and Vincent
Banks to just fill it up from outside. Other team will not be able to
double team both of them from the outside.  You cant run a zone at them
because they both can nail the 3 pointer.

With midnight madness just a week away, it's time for a new poll. Who
will win the Midnight Madness slam dunk contest?  I did not list
everyone from the roster.  Just those who I think will participate.
