Nice info gentlemen. I just think it is extremely important to be rotating players next year. I think they lost to Michigan State because they lost their legs. Jamie has had his players playing way too many minutes the second half of the year and had nothing in the tank when the threes weren't falling and facing a physical team.
Michigan State was not better than any team faced in their last 6 games prior, they just didn't have anything left halfway through the second half of the game. peiople have stated that ther Panthers looked winded, gassed. affected by the high altitude and other excusese. I think Jamie just pushed too few players far too much and it showed.
I am looking forward to next year and hope that Dixon starts reducing playing times down to 15-18 minutes per game max and sharing time with the underclassmen.
I also feel he over recruited for this incoming group in 2008 and most of them will only be role players. I hope I am wrong, but this group may not be game ready and that scares me. We should have a great season again, but down to tournament time, this depth will be imporatnt. As funny as it sounds, this seams deja vu of what I said about last year at the beginning of the season. I knew that Blair was the real thing, but after him, I was hoping for Wannamaker and Brown to be large contributers with Biggs stepping up. I hope that this year will be different..
