    The bad luck injury bug excuse can only go so far. Konkol is directly responsible for two wasted scholarships this season.

    For two years now, we have had one perfectly healthy scholarship juco transfer who Konkol doesn't think is good enough to play for us now in his 4th year of college, and he still has one more year of eligibility left.

    Konkol also signed another player who did not academically qualify, which left our roster short of one scholarship player this season.

    That makes two completely wasted scholarships by Konkol that no one ever mentions. The NCAA gives us 13 scholarships. Bad luck injuries only cost us 2 guys, which should leave us with 11 available players, not 7.

    Truth. I think it is safe to say there have been more “misses” with this staff than the previous one.

    I'm glad you posted this. I hadn't thought along that line at all. It's definitely a big part of why our bench is as short as it is. Even having two more players on the bench would help.

    Another thing: I know Thomas was held out of the FIU game because of a hopefully minor injury, but I think Thomas should be part of an 8-man rotation getting a chunk of #35's minutes. In limited PT, Thomas has shown much more upside as a freshman while our veteran #35 consistently struggles. I don't understand Konkol's minutes distribution for the bigs at all.

    Some of our "fans" will be upset that you are upset about losing.

    We are supposed to be happy with all the meaningless records our AD sets. Attendance is over rated.
