Hurley Subbing

[dannyHAM]

I’ve been thinking about this for years. I get so frustrated when he keeps our starters in when we are blowing out teams. You’re telling me the freshman and bench players haven’t earned more than 3 minutes in a
Blowout? Lucky Andre didn’t get hurt. Needs to be addressed ASAP.

Eh whatever. It's fun to blow people out and pump up stats.

He had issues subbing a year ago. Seems improved this season. No issue from me

 

[Kitaman]

Calhoun had his moments. I blame the assistants.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Go to bed.

I would have put in Johnson, Diggins and Springs earlier but whatever.

 

[Waquoit]

Ignore

Being all Big East matters. The starters need their minutes. End of the bench type players get their minutes in practice.

Was wondering who was going to be the complainer after a dominant performance

 

[WeAreUCONN]

After watching Diggins in these blowout wins I understand why Gaffney is playing and not Diggins.

We definitely need you to apply for the job and take care of it. Coach dannyHam you got this.

 

[Hi-Low]

4 minute mark is about the norm for non rotation players in blowout. Wish Akok was out in last 4 mins but DH probably thought could use the mins...hope limp at end nothing.

 

[ThabeetDown]

Of course someone is angry after a dominating performance. I feel bad you can’t find any joy in life.

 

[Dooooooomed]

The computer rankings (esp NET) love efficiency. Important for seeding.

He's got 9 starters/rotation players. There's just so many minutes to go around. Johnson seems a bit ahead of Diggins who is CLEARLY a work in progress. At this point, I'd say it's MUCH smarter for Hurley to give more minutes to Hawkins and Gaffney because they are likely to be pivotal players come tourney time.

Is that the best thing you can come up with to criticize DH?

 

[Palatine]

Personally, I enjoyed the game including the subbing.

You seem like a lot of fun

I had no problems with the subbing tonight. Liked Hawkins getting a little more time with a few starters. They'll need him if they make a deep run come tourny time and it was a great time to build a little confidence in the young man.
When you empty the beach it can become ugly quick. Build him up when you can.

 

[dannyHAM]

Throughly enjoyed the win no issues at all on that end trust me. Just meant it more as a question of if you guys think the starters should be out sooner to prevent injury.

 

[jdb50]

Akok going for the block and getting a goaltending call tweeked his knee on the landing. The closer call came on a loose ball when RJ was very close to getting his lower leg rolled up on by the GTown center with about 5 to go. We got lucky there.

Maybe at 5-6 minutes instead of 4 when it started. But that's just being really nitpicky and creating issues where they don't exist

 

[Huskybass]

I was at the game and I thought that the substitution pattern was pretty perfect today. I'm glad that Johnson and Diggins both got some run.

Granted Georgetown isn't very good, but this was the most complete win we've had in awhile.

 

[Mike1984]

I’ve been watching the game for years and I’ve always thought to myself, if they lowered the baskets to 8ft I could have been pro.

 

[MDHuskFan]

We haven’t had teams this talented in a while.

All really good teams have good players who just don’t play. Let’s be happy with a dominant win. Outside of Hawkins 4 point play, we scored 2 points in the final 3 minutes. (Didn’t look super clean either)

I have thought there were opportunities to get them playing time earlier in the year against cupcake OOC teams. But I’d much rather use the time now to fine tune rotations & things for the Big Easy Tournament & NCAA. Getting Hawks confidence will pay off more than an extra 2 minutes for Sool & Samson

Hurley pitches a perfect game and boneyard has complaints. Unbelievable
