The bolded is pretty much where it ends, most guys want to play basketball and not sit on the bench, it is not bad advice to seek out an opportunity that gets you on the floor. 2 years in and much older than a typical junior to be, it's time to get some run now after putting in 2 years of practice time.
But what 3rd-string center did he "masterly weave minutes" for? I honestly can't think of one.
I saw something today saying he was visiting FSU and Florida Atlantic.
Flynn Clayman is a well-regarded recurring minor character in a half dozen streaming series spread across 4 different major platforms. Previously, he was sequentially featured in several categories of genre fiction that included print & graphic novels.
Hilton Armstrong played as a sophomore on a team that had Josh Boone, Charlie V, and Emeka.
I remember Justin Brown being sandwiched in between Emeka, Hilton, Deng, Wane, Mike Hayes. He would play. Justin would be perfect right now Lol.
He can't. That's why I want a 6'8-9" big bodied PF that can spell the 4 or 5. Easier to sell them on the idea that there are some minutes.
Those 2 bolded parts of option 1 are my take here. He was certainly not a detriment when he played. I would have liked him to stay and to see Reibe at the 4 more often.
We had them. And I agree with you but I think the guy that should spell the 4 and 5 is Reibe and then we bring in another 5.
No way!!! I didn't realize he was THE Flynn Clayman!
That might be viable. I think we need somebody with some bulk, We may get pushed around a bit aside from Reed.
Apples and oranges. Emeka and Boone both started - two bigs was a more common thing in those days. Boone and CV split minutes at the four and Hilton backed up Emeka. Marcus White was the odd big out on that team.
Exactly. Not to mention Calhoun yanking people out of the game for poor play. It’s not even up for debate . Are we going to sit here, in 2025, and act like Calhoun wouldn’t have sat Tarris or Samson down, with some select language??? He would’ve did it with Samson and Clingan sometimes. Singare would’ve played for Calhoun. Lol. He would’ve put Singare in at that Maui foul fest, turned his back to the game, and tore into Samson and Reed for 5 minutes.
There's a reason nobody coaches like that anymore.
For example, like he did with Hilton Armstrong.
ikr
In 2024 UConn was at 11% while the average was 22%. Which means, if a guy picks up his 2nd foul with 10 minutes left in the first half, on average, he'd play 2 of the remaining 10 minutes, while at UConn they'd only play 1 minute. So, yeah, the vast majority of coaches sit guys with 2 fouls.
