In response to Old Bear
I don't have the numbers, but I'm guessing Brown got more minutes from it's current freshman class in league games than anyone else in the league, and that's with a team that lost only three games. The new class, on paper, looks at least as good.
Am I misreading this? Penn started 2 freshman in League games and played another more than 20 minutes per game with two or three more (before Cofield got hurt) getting minutes off the bench? How could Brown's freshmen have played more? And while it is true Brown lost only three games, it can't be denied that the two all-Ivy first-teamers and the junior PG were the primary reason for that. Sullivan had a good year in the third-option role Grandieri had his first two years, but it will be a big change when he becomes more of a go-to guy. And Williams? You saw him more than me but again he played well in a role in which he didn't have to make things happen. He didn't turn the ball over much but he didn't get many assists either. Brown's other freshmen are all "potential," having done little this year one way or the other.
