Trey looks like not only the “glue” to this team but more like the “Super Glue” of this team.

Lot of truth there but if you look at last year's roster, Trey just didn't fit in as an off the bench backup to anyone. We had 3 big men(played the big positions) in Pollard, Miller and Cunningham. We had 2 big/medium tweeners in Mikesell and Williams, we had Baby D and Cooke to play the 2 and 3 positions and we had Kyle in the 2 position and Scooch and Crosby at PG. That's 10 moving parts already which pretty much relegated Trey to the first walk-on off the bench position. Trey pretty much became Wehrli's replacement from the season before. Wehrli however got more minutes the prior year due to injury of Pollard and suspension of Pierre and freshman not being ready to handle big responsibilities early in the season.
Hopefully AM made it clear to Trey that he was going to have a very small role for the team his freshman season when he recruited him.
