Another way of saying this is you would hope in a perfect world your incumbent reserves and newbies would be good enough to push starters for their position at some point in the season. That's what breeds success in most cases. Take the number off the jersey in practice and see who brings it, and reward their efforts in some way. Even a returning captain should appreciate that approach. No pouting allowed. I would like to see Ibi excel and push Trey. A healthy Chase Johnson should have Mikesell in his crosshairs. Same with Rodney Chatman and Crutcher.
Against an off year in the A10 we did pretty well at 13-5. Against a stronger ooc we were a paltry 8-7.
We avoid that definition of insanity by promoting competition at every position and may the best player win. We get better as a team, and what an awesome bench we cultivate in the process.
Go Flyers !
