You don’t need to have LeBron-like skills to bust your @$$ and hustle. And if Grant sees a Junior, who played behind one of the top PGs in UD history, making mental errors and giving-up on plays with any regularity, then yes, I can see why Grant is choosing to play & develop the freshman.
Any manager in any field will occasionally be faced with the decision of “Do I go with the person who knows the ‘tricks of the trade’? Or, do I go with the person who’s more like a block of modeling clay, that I can shape and craft as my own creation?” It looks like Grant has decided that Crosby didn’t learn enough of the ‘tricks’ in 2 years of playing behind Scoochie and for Miller to overcome the limitations of his own skill sets and his grasp of the D-I game.

Well put T-Bone. You hit the nail on the head. If Kostas comes around, and Williams does not, you could see something similar there.
