I think Stutz starts next game.

[Capitol Shock]

How about:

Stutz
Durley
Clemente
Hawkins
Toure

or

Hannah rather than Hawk

[Snapshot9]

I do not think the coach can continue with an 11 player rotation, 12 when Griskenas is back. I think he will have to settle for 10 man rotation.

Let me guess. Some players on your 10 man roation are:
Clemente, Ramon
Stutz, Garrett
Murry, Toure'
Hatch, Graham
Griskenas, Mantas
Chamberlain, Reggie
Ellis, Aaron
Hawkins, A.J.

Others might be:
Durley, J.T. ?
Hannah, Clevin ?

Players who will ride the bench with your 10 man roation are:
Kyles, David
Steven, Brett
Britton, Jr., Reggie
Felter, Mason
Michael, Bret

Right? :D

Spangler ... You listed them right, including Durley and Hannah, but I would sit Ellis, or either play him very limited minutes (See 2008-2009 Shocker Prouty Ratings thread for an explanation). Ellis looks like a brand new Freshman instead of a Sophmore. He needs to sit until he proves hisself more in practice.

If Hannah doesn't regain his composure, and run the team like it should be run, I would think of putting Murry in as the PG.

And finally, Stutz should play more and Durley less. Durley is lazy.

I agree that Stutz is deserving of a start. Looking ahead a game, it's going to be a real challenge for him and JT to go up against Greg Monroe.

[ShauXTyme]

I not only think JT is lazy, I also think he's a "baby". I don't think he takes much to coaching, and the coach needs to see that, and do something about it...namely, sit his @$$ on the bench.

Does anyone know if Griskenas will play in Monday's game against Centenary? If he doesn't play then, I do not think he will play in Orlando.

Griskenas plays the 4 postion better than Ellis has, and his defense is better, especially around the boards.

[Awesome Sauce Malone]

I hope Griskenas doesnt play monday so he would be ready for orlando.

As fans we don't know what is going on between coach and player. I think JT wants to be the player we all want him to be. I just don't think his mind and body are equipped at this point to be that player.

JT had a few bulbs in his game that weren't lighting up last year. Supposedly, the effort bulb came on after last season. But the defense bulb is still dark.

Who says the coaching staff doesn't read Shockernet?

The coaching staff!! :lol: (I know you get the joke. ;-) )

[Overtime]

I don't know how much better Stutz can play D at this point in his career.....AE has shown nothing so far so Durley will probably get the same number of minutes without starting....our interior defense could be awful this year....Hope I'm wrong

[SubGod22]

At least Ellis is coming off of injury so we can still hope he comes around the next few games...

[RoyalShock]

I think Ellis is a kid who needs some time to get comfortable on the court before he gains the confidence necessary to play like he did late last season. Granted, that's based on a freshman year where he probably should have redshirted. So I hope it's different this year. Maybe the Centenary game will be the one where he gains that confidence. We're going to need his skills at the OSC.

[shockerfan1]

Presonally, I think HCGM plays the player he thinks gives them the best chance for success...ALWAYS!!!! He isn't the kind of guy who starts someone simply because they aren't a freshman, or because they are...or because they have been around for a while...he starts and plays the best players always...
