I'm confused. It's late, and I've had a lot. Cliff Stoudt?

Is this a type of beer? I'll try it.

Generally, when things don't make sense to us it's because we are missing key points of information. In this case, when it comes to decision making on playing time, there are things that we don't, and shouldn't, know. As a possibility, and from a purely speculative perspective, let's consider that HCBD might prioritize establishing the relationship he wants to have with his players. Some head coaches want to be aloof, but that is obviously not BD's style, he's an emotional guy. It could be that it's important to him to demonstrate things like two-way loyalty and rewarding character, especially given marginal differences in performance. These would be crucial aspects of the cultural repairs he talks about. I have no evidence that this is what's happening, but I kind of hope that it is. It's why, as fans, you have to trust the coach until you don't. We're never gonna know what the locker room dynamics are.

Yeah ditto this and he does appear to have great relationships with his players and his recruits. Like the rebuilding of the program, HCBD is also a work in progress.
