Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 3953621, member: 9844"] I guess the part of this I question, is not expecting Geno to go more than 7-8 players in the big games "unless we see big offseason improvements with our #8-12 players." You are completely right that Geno's track record when he doesn't trust all the BE rotation is to shorten it up. But it doesn't even require big offseason improvement because 8-12 last year and 8-12 this year can be completely different. Many of last year's 8-12 are in essence being upgraded and replaced by better incoming players. Piath doesn't have to improve, we have Amari instead. Mir doesn't have to improve, we have Dorka. Anna is gone but she is clearly improved with Azzi. Carolyn might very well be an improvement on Saylor. It is possible that not one of those 8-12 players last year will be in the top 10 this year. I hope they do improve, but feel if Geno goes more than 7-8 deep against the good teams, it is far more likely it is because the additions were the real deal, than the improvement of Mir, Saylor, Piath or Autumn.
