Red shirting isn't in our DNA any more than playing a zone defense. It's a Miller thingy.

Don't think I've heard one of his recruits even mention playing time. His playing of freshmen is one heck of a recruiting tool. Telling these kids you're going to develop them from start to finish has to make even the best recruits take a hard look at UD. Thanks, Archie.
I'll add that I believe by the same token that Crosby is your starter next year, with continual exposure for McKinley Wright mixed in.
