Big D, trust me your point is well taken but now I have another problem. Is PB motto "You earn your game minutes in practice UNLESS you are better then the other players". Their is no sense in have a standard about you have to earn your minutes in practice if it only applies when their are better players ahead of you.
I tend to agree with WSUGRAD, I personally think Spencer would be a better asset then either Wilson or Taylor.
I certainly don't have the answer but I'll assume ( based on recent history) that Everret will probably transfer after the season. I hope I'm wrong.

Right now we are a better team without Spencer on the court. We have lost 5 times this year. Spencer averaged 17.2 minutes in those games. We have won 4 times this year. Spencer didn't appear at all in 2 of those games and he played a total of 14 minutes combined in the other 2 games.
He isn't a better asset than either Wilson or Taylor this year. Both of those players are doing what our coaches ask them to do for the team. Taylor has been a solid contributor on both ends of the court. He is playing 22 minutes a game and averaging 5 point and he is shooting 38% from 3 point range. Besides Scott, Taylor is our only other consistent 3 point threat. Wilson's has been up and down this year offensively, but he has been one of our better defenders and he is running our offense the way our coaches want it run. If Spencer would simply do his assignments he would be playing more.

I think we are winning more recently because of two things.
1. T. Scott 2. easier teams
I don't think it is because Spencer is not playing as much.

Another reason WSU has been winning is that we have been playing at home.
Remember, we only have one loss at home so far this season. We should have beaten Ball State and would be 5-4.

I think we are winning more recently because of two things. 1. T. Scott 2. easier teams I've already mentioned that Scott makes us a whole different team, but our schedule has been just as tough recently as the beginning of the year, with the exception of Texas Pan Am. 157 Belmont 117 Toledo 101 Ball St 92 Miami OH 159 Detroit 4 Northern Illinois 157 Belmont 292 Texas Pan American 110 Northeastern
