I'm sitting here waiting for the game to start and was wondering what shape we would be in if Boat declared for the draft last year. Actually we all know what shape we would be in and it isn't pretty. How did we get in this situation where we don't have a reliable second ball handler this year and if Boat did declare did we have any other recruiting options to replace him ?
Did the staff believe TSam or Rodney could actually handle this responsibility whether it was as a second ball handler or as the starting PG ? Or was there some other option I don't know about and when Boat decided to stay we passed on a backup PG ? I find it unsettling that we have no secondary ball handler this year especially, with a coaching staff full of former PG's, but very scary if Boat did declare and all we had was TSam and Rodney. Not sure how the number of scollies play into this, but it's puzzling how we got into this mess. Plus knowing that next year we have to rely on a Freshman without any experienced PG to back him up.
