Getting outscored 15-9 in an exhibition game when the five on the floor were limited with what they could do does not mean they have a short bench.

Geno used the Tulsa game last year to show the fans that "here is why they don't play more, they aren't very good". I thought it was unfair statement then and still do.

He says that they have to prove it in practice to earn their time.  Yep and it has worked wonderfully for 33 years.  What I wonder about is if you know that you need more than 5 or 6 (especially because of injuries) why isn't the 16 or so game exhibition schedule called the American Conference used to develop a player or two that could provide impactful minutes in a difficult NCAA game?

I hate questioning anything Geno does because of his resume and the phenomenal product his puts on the floor.  I am sure he has spent hours talking with the staff on this very issue.  As of yet, I am not sure their solution has generated the desired result
