I think this may be due to him pushing a bit. I think Dan leaned on Casey to be more of a "scorer". He is not that. I don't even thing he is a Point Guard. He should probably be playing the 2 guard and JB should come off the bench.

I think fans who really watch the games realized that JB was not even going to come close to competing for the WAC POY. He has regressed quite a bit and I think his body is just failing him. I imagine he is in a great deal of pain after each game. As far as DM, I appreciate his honesty and passion in those post game tirades, but I am tired of hearing them. Rip kids all you want to their face... fans don't need to hear it, not like that. I still think DM is a good coach, but things need to be shaken up a bit. JB should not be starting. I am not even sure Casey should be starting. I'd like to see Aidoo or Carr (when healthy) run the point, Have Casey and JB alternate at the 2, Oscar and Rob at the 3, Matty, Gerard, and Vernon can work the 4. Ali, should play the whole game! lol He's GCU's most efficient player and the offense should run through him currently. I love Damari, but he seems confused to me on the court, looks down a lot, and picks up his dribble much too quickly. Being a freshmen who handles the ball is a lot tougher than being a freshmen who plays in the post. He will be fine in time, I believe.

By comparison, I'm glad that Jans had the guts to bring Chuha off the bench. Chuha has been playing his best basketball now that the WAC season started, yet Jans just said this week "I don't think anyone's ever called Eli Chuha a good defender".
