Kind of hard to question anything CNO is doing right now, but

any guesses as to why Gary is one of the first guys off of the bench but is rarely seen again for the remaining 75% of the game?? Is he wanting to utilize his legs and lungs early before it's crunch time?

I know people were talking great about him before he was injured last season. I feel like Oats mentioned him shooting the ball really well before the season started. But he doesn't get many chances to shoot it now. He looks long and athletic. And his shot doesn't look bad. But he sure hasn't got much run.

If Oats is hellbent on running a 9 man rotation, swapping Gary for Rojas seems fairly obvious. Otherwise, cut them both out and get it down to 8

I don't disagree, but depth helped Bama win on Saturday. I like Gary better than Rojas because of his size and athleticism, but Rojas has had a couple of solid games.

He definitely has. But, some players are bad in that they’re not particularly productive(Ben Eblen). Others are bad in that they’re actually destructive. For the most part, Rojas is the latter. I could live with it if he just wasn’t doing much to speak of, but this dude comes in for 4 minutes and picks up 2 and 1 fouls, 3 turnovers, and 6 missed shots.

I feel like if he jumps you can’t slid a single piece of paper under his feet.

I am not arguing that Gary should be getting more minutes. I just find it odd that Gary seems to be one of the first kids off of the bench and then puts his warm-ups back on and goes and sits in the bus. Maybe he is getting more minutes than I realize. Maybe Oats accidentally played him 5 games ago and isnt changing his routine until they lose.

Absolutely weird. He’s done it several times.
