Possibility of Burning Any Redshirts?

I'd assume the coaching staff had a plan with those redshirts, and will see them out. Besides, you'd have to think Harvey misses one more game at the maximum.
 
I'm not sure on that one. But, I'm very bummed out that Sir is out for the remainder of the year. That kid has an amazing skill set. I've been evaluating him for a while and he can do some special things and is going to be a staple for years to come at EWU. This team has heart though and we will find a way to win down the stretch without him.

From the Rafters....
go eags!

I thought about that too, but at this point in the season I'm not sure it's worth it. The real answer is that we need to get more production out of some of the bench. I'm surprised Daniel Hill hasn't seen more minutes this year. I thought he'd be a contributor at this point. What's the deal there?
 
Who knows but the fact we are 8 or 9 deep at full strength is awes p me..plus you factor in the youth.... We are set up for a nice run for the next couple of years!
 
Daniel Hill has been inconsistent handling the ball and totally inept defensively, basically he hasn't developed enough to compete at this level. He is a talented kid, but undersized and at this point still is not a viable option. Sir Washington hasn't been a great shooter so far, but he has done well with the ball in his hands and has been an excellent defender. Harvey is an average defender, but an excellent shooter and ball handler, Drew is an outstanding ball handler, plus defender and an average shooter, plus shooter if you count in his ability to penetrate and own the paint.

As far as burning a red shirt, they've done that in the past (Harvey), but I doubt they will for this season. I expect they'll look to other guys to step up, namely Von Hofe, Bliznyuk and Moon. They have the depth to be just fine if Harvey can just stay available. A lot is riding on Drew Brandon to run this offense, but I think there is enough trust there that Coach will not make the move at this point.

All of that is just my opinion, but it gels with what Coach has said and done so far. For instance he's had Moon and Bliznyuk both playing multiple positions from 3 to 5 at various points.
