Another inspiring performance from Tre Scott today off the bench. All of a sudden the prospect of him playing 20+ minutes a game next season doesn't seem that bad.

I don't think anyone would have a negative thing to say about Jennifer if he was coming off the bench. He's a fine backup. He's not a quality top 15 pg.

You could take the starting pg from probably the top 150 teams in the nation and they could give us what Jennifer does with little or no difference.
It’s not flattering, it’s unflattering. And i’m Jennifer, he’s Jenifer. The 150th ranked team inthe country is St. Louis. Find the guy on that team you want starting for the Bearcats. And when you produce his stats, translate it to this team. You may not like it, but Coach starts him for a reason. Again, 29 wins. But keep arguing.

But the thing is, what's the point? Why are we trash talking a player on our team. Yes, he is an average player, but still.. come on guys.

That's thing though man, we don't want any of them starting for the Bearcats! It's easy to find a backup point guard who can hustle and play good defense. Some of you people act like coaches are infallible and can never make mistakes. Just because we've won 29 doesn't mean we wouldn't have won 30 if Jennifer wasn't starting.

P.S. Their pg averages 11pt, 3rb, 2ast. Jennifer averages 4pt, 1 rb, 2 ast.

I'm not trash talking him. I'm merely stating my opinion of what he is as a player/asset to our team. I feel my opinion is pretty accurate. I think Jennifer is perfectly capable of being a good member of this team but he's not a starter.

JJ is a starter and has been all year. It has allowed Coach to use Cane in a number of roles. It also allowed Cane to adjust his game to being more of a facilitator. Which on this team is very important. This move may have been a key in us being where we are. Cane being a spark off the bench may be way we are where we are. I am not trying to argue that JJ is a better individual player then Cane. But for the team the way the coach employed both players has worked to the tune of 29 wins and perhaps are best season in some time.

Read my post in response to beeman. Just because we won 29 games doesn't mean we wouldn't have won 30 if Jennifer wasn't starting. Given how the two of them have played in our losses I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that we could have pulled out one or more of those games.

I don't agree. I see lots of value in Cane coming off the bench. His play in his role has been a huge reason we are in the position we are in. Your analogy is speculative at best. The fact is we are having our best season in quite awhile doing coach's way.
