Message: [QUOTE="ibleedhuskyblue, post: 4786684, member: 149"] There are 5 newcomers on this team that are learning the system (4 frosh), and getting ready for big games (excluding singare). The end of the bench will not come in until after the 4:00 minute timeout...same as last season. This is just how Hurley does it. He uses these games to try new defenses (and put them on tape for other teams), teach/improve offensive sets, and evaluate different lineup combinations. The end of the bench will get the same 2-3 min they have always gotten, and it's the right way to do it. He is trying to win. There are limited amounts of time these kids can practice together during the season. These games are great as full speed practices. [/QUOTE]
