Coach Rose makes a few interesting observations



-UTSA plays a similar style to FSU

-Senior ladened team

-Experienced guys wil likely play more

-Winder will probably play

UTSA should be an easy win - so this should be a game where Zylstra shines.

Zylstra was a Black Hole today. He was almost worthless tonight. I can't wait for Winder to get healthy and eat into Zylstra's playing time. We could definitely use Winders help defensively. It's frustrating he's received so much playing time today just because he's a stupid Senior with "experience". Hell, use Auggi at the 3 and leave Zylstra on the stinking bench.

I don't think that's why Zylstra is playing. Winder basically couldn't practice for six weeks. He's not in game shape. Give him a few weeks and he'll start playing more - if he takes advantage of his opportunities and plays well. Rose won't keep playing Zylstra because he is a senior. He will keep playing him until he starts playing poorly and the backups show they are ready to take over by playing consistently.

As bad as Zylstra is in the open court and driving to the hoop. He is a big wing who has played pretty good D. He also is a fairly good rebounder. Winder will take his minutes I hope but Zylstra has significantly more size than the rest of our team.

Honestly, Brock has been our 3rd-best player this year, just ahead of Sharp. We need some smaller outside shooters to start stepping up.

Yeah, I don't get the Zylstra hate around here. He's a VERY solid player. Right up there with Lee Cummard. Oh well, we have blame BYU's losses on someone, right?

No, I get it- Zysltra was a "24 points against Portland, 0 points against Gonzaga" type of guy last year. This year, he's an "11 points, 5 rebounds" type of guy more often than not. That's good. It's needed.

Well, if we just go with the flow, we can just blame the bball losses on Riley Nelson.
