Message: [QUOTE="Vowelguy, post: 2675412, member: 59"] A short bench, per se, is *never* an advantage. The problem is that too many coaches are too timid or unskilled to know how to use their personnel. For many coaches, if they have 12 able-bodies players they will play 12 players, even if 5 of them aren't very good. I recall when Kentucky had their line-change substitutions and Geno made a comment to the effect of "that was great, because their 2nd five was so much weaker than UConn's starting 5." [/QUOTE]
