then I guess Biggie will be the shortened version of "Big Time". I really like what I've seen of this young man, and it's obvious he's a hard worker from what has been posted on the board.

It's important to give a talented kid some playing time early to keep him interested. Andre Jones and Biggie, along with Ryan Pippins, need to see some action early on to allow them to acclimate to the speed of D1 ball. We don't want someone leaving, ala John Gillon, who can really help us if they complete their eligibility in Little Rock. Kids today don't have the patience to sit on the bench and wait their turn. It's sad how many transfers there are every season because they're not getting to play where they are.

If a kid's ready, forget a redshirt season. You'd better play them while you have them.
