[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1313284, member: 7292"] It would have been a huge star. You think that an assistant taking over in post-season and winning the NIT is not a big deal and would not matter to him? To the point that he would just play the seniors even if he would have had better chances of winning with other players? No coach would do that. Also, your claim of playing the seniors out of tribute has little connection with reality. Walker did not play most of the seniors at all again UCF. Actually, Jaylon Tate, Mike Thorne, and Alex Austin did not play at all in the UCF game. Zero. Yet, even Aaron Jordan (same class as DJW) registered 11 mins despite going 0-3 and remaining scoreless. And Jordan has not really taken college basketball by storm with his performance this season compared to DJW. There are reasons that Walker did not play DJW but playing the seniors out of tribute against UCF and not caring about the outcome of the game is simply not that reason, and not supported with actual facts either.
