Youssouf Singare Going to be a secret weapon?

[uh-no]

You do it when your first 2 fives have 9 fouls between them with 10 minutes left in the game.

at which point we'll go karaban at the 5, as we did for a stretch last year. much more valuable to get our highly talented crop of guards and wings on the floor than YS.

People, people… Singare was a borderline 4 star recruit upon commitment. He was extremely raw and overmatched last year. This year he got two buckets against URIs backups in a scrimmage and now he’s going to be a “secret weapon” and part of a three man big rotation? What are we doing? Should TR and SJ get into foul trouble, which they will at times, I am relatively certain we will go small to get another one of the wings on the court. I mean what BE “bigs,” other than old man Kalkbrenner, do we need to be concerned about?

Also, I sincerely doubt we’re going 10-11 deep. As it is, I think a couple guys are not going to play as much as they thought.

Realistically, he gets time during late minutes of blowouts, and spot minutes when the other bigs are in foul trouble.

But, who knows, possibly his pace of development may be unusually rapid and lead to more time.

Regardless, he's probably out of the rotation in tournament time when the bench shortens.

Still, he can be a positive contributor from the bench. His positive spirit is great for the team. Championship teams have a happy and supportive bench:

I'm closer to this as well. I hope Singare develops and is good enough to play as an upperclassman. But Hurley didn't bring in Reed to make him third string.

Sinagre is only getting a chance if one of our two main bigs becomes unplayable, or is injured.

Thank you. That's a great way of expressing how he might be playing.

Remember how hard it was for the very talented Solo Ball to get into the flow last year with limited minutes. Singare would have the same challenge, even if he's more ready this year.
