RE: Starting lineup

We have been fortunate that we have depth and have shown a lot of toughness in comebacks but something needs to change for the first 5-8 minutes of the game. Since I started the thread I will make a suggestion but in the end I just hope coach Jones is considering something different. Personally I like Kithcart starting with Dickens in the middle. We can still bring in Wade, ,Ezikpe, Carver, Robinson, whatever the nature of the game is dictating. Carver and one other big in the starting lineup basically gives us two players that are not going to score. That's allowing a fresh defense to swarm on BJ and Caver. The first 5 minutes is not going to win the game for you but it sure would be nice to not have to dig out of a hole, especially a conference game on the road.
I agree, but I am not sure who I would put in that open slot. I guess it is between Wade and Kithcart. I really like Kithcart coming off the bench, though.
