[QUOTE="LouHenson, post: 1972623, member: 746834"] This is just my thought, but the person who said that playing Ty at the point allows for the “all out” switching that BU has wanted to do for some time Is right on. Now if any of the guards get in foul trouble (I include Luke, MD, TSJ and Ty in that category) then the first guard off the bench is JH. Ok we loose a little on D gain a little on O in theory, but it mostly still allows for the switching. That leads to who will be our next guard off the bench if 2 of the three in parentheses get in foul trouble. Well at this point it is Nico or DGL, one is a point the other is a potential scorer. I think that is very much why Harris RSed. We have defense and at best he would have been fighting Nico and DGL for time. He needed to get his offensive game at least serviceable. In the old days DGL would have red shirted, but as it is today he could see time due to either foul problems or just a perfect match up situation. We have so much length out of our top 9 players that it is tough not to have a rotation of them. Just my 2 cents? [/QUOTE]
