In response to Penndemonium
Wasn't Henry Brooks on the Duane King Ten Year Plan?
I recall being very high personally on the potential of Mike Howlett too. It seemed that injuries derailed his career.
There are so many players who didn't reach potential or seemed in the dog house, but I don't blame any coach for any single player. There are so many things that matter about a player, especially decision-making and response to pressure. Some of those things aren't as obvious to a spectator. Players will have good and bad days, so we often see what we want to see. I never understood why Mike Milobsky, Andreas Schreiber, Dau Jok, Julian Harrell, Eddie Scott, Bryce Washington, and Duane King didn't get more time.
I do blame Miller and Allen for grinding our program to pieces, though. Talent management is a part of that. I have no idea which of the overlooked players deserved more playing time the most.
