In response to PennFan10
Penn pundits.
From an outsider's perspective, have you considered that maybe Coach Donahue plays Max out of necessity. Last year, Matt Howard was your rebounding forward, grabbing about as many boards as Brodeur. Beyond Betley, it appears that most of the rebounds are distributed among guards. Forcing Betley to guard a 4 and rebound would likely impact his offensive upside and could land him in foul trouble. Thus, it seems to me that inserting Max and playing him 30 minutes is by necessity.
If this year's freshmen or the incoming class provides a big 3 or even a small 4, then there are other options.
