Here are the average minutes played through 5 games. And yes, they are skewed somewhat by the last 3 games against awful teams where we got to empty our bench to a large extent. With that caveat:
26.0 Frank
24.2 Troup
22.2 Blackwell
22.2 Dembele
21.8 Williams
18.6 Dufficy
18.2 Hansen
17.6 Dickson
12.2 Green
Smith, Kelly, Linthacum under 8/game.
I think we are going to end up with an 8 person rotation taking up almost all the minutes, since there are few breathers in the SEC. So draw a line under Dickson and those are the 8.
I just don’t see much playing time the rest of the year for Green, Smith, Kelly or Linthacum. It’s pretty clear who the best 8 players are now and that’s the rotation RP needs to focus on. Those players give us the best chance to win in the SEC.
