[QUOTE="aaeismacgychel, post: 1995598, member: 748794"] Be careful what you wish for. Nico had some positive moments in his play thus far this season prior to his injury (though it needs to be said that foot injuries have a tendency to linger), DGL meanwhile hasn't really done anything to push the players in front of him, and he's shown like most freshman B10 guards, he's going to need a season of strength and conditioning and an offseason to work. It's just how it is. Really, if we're expecting either Nico or DGL to come in, bring energy, and make a big impact, I think we're reaching hard. Any positive minutes given by them is a bonus not an expectation. The guy we have who can come in and provide a huge spark and push our starters is unfortunately redshirting. But in fairness, we've played so well thus far, that this is the first game this season I've truly missed Sencire. Before the season started I said there would be 2-3 games we'd really miss him this season, and I think this was one of them. [/QUOTE]
