I just have a tough time evaluating anyone who sees such limited minutes. Grades for Pauga have to be considered incomplete right now, even Wilson to some extent, although it looks like his minutes may tick up now.

That's the point just give me the 2015-16 Wilson, Bradley, Pauga and Huskies will have a great season. Pauga without the concussion. He hasn't been the same since.

You only think of Pauga's offense, he is horrid on defense. He needs to shoot above 50% from 3 to make up for the points given up. He also has the be ready to shoot when he is passed the ball. He is in the game to shoot and most times he cannot find an open shot. He should play every game but I believe he is getting too many minutes for his production and I believe Marshawn has not been given enough minutes before the last three games.

It was a privilege for me to get together with three great Huskie fans, Pantone1935, MiamiHuskie and SarasotaHuskie, and watch some Huskie basketball against FIU and USF. Had a great time!

To those of you that live within driving distance, GET TO THE CONVO AND SUPPORT THIS TEAM. These Huskies play WITH HEART. They left it all on the floor against FIU and USF. The defense is relentless. Monty and the rest of the coaching staff are getting max effort out of these players and you gotta love that!

GO HUSKIES!

The reason Wilson doesn't get more mins is horrible defense and missing shots.

That is definitely not the Marshawn Wilson we saw against USF. It's only one game, but the effort was there on both ends of the floor. I see Wilson being a big factor for this team in MAC play.

Yes! Wilson so far has not shot the three well actually he's been horrible and he is not known for his defense. Hopefully he has a good MAC season.

The effort against USF was far and above any game this year. The offensive metrics were still bad but the effort for the first time this year was where it needed to be. Makes me think the team had some type of motivational moment on that trip. Huskies will win more than they lose if they brought that energy every night.

Huskiebob is right Marshawn played both ends against USF. Best overall game he has played as a Huskie. Hope it continues. Monty has been a hell lot tougher on Marshawn than Austin this season for defensive lapses. Marshawn playing defense against USF was one reason Austin did not see floor in 2nd half.

Sometimes even if your not defending well atleast making a effort is something. Also Wilson was suspended two games so I'm sure he's been slowly getting out of dog house. I'm sure Monty is giving both guys minutes hoping that they will get going as he knows he needs their scoring in MAC games.

So Wilson played defense at USF that's good news but that also may mean he hadn't been trying hard in other games to defend. He certainly is capable.

It wasn't just Wilson that raised the level of energy/intensity, the whole team did. I am not sure what happened to cause the maxed out effort, but something changed.
