I redshirted Militello waiting on his response. I'm the 8 point favorite tonight in my game against Hiram should I push the tempo tonight or leave it alone?

Has he responded? I think he would have, but I forget how that works during the season. If has responded and he's good with the RS, then you can play Ed Smith. Assuming you'll go 11 deep, I would compare the teams and say that you can go uptempo and it may help make the win more likely.

More important than that, realize that Hiram is a fastbreak & 2-3 zone team that is SimAI coached. That means that it won't play slowdown and it won't switch to 3-2 on you. So, you should set your best perimeter players to shoot a bit more than you would against m2m or a 3-2. Either normal tempo or uptempo is fine.

Its better to redshirt during recruiting, he won't like the fact you are redshirting him during the season. I don't know if this will hurt your reputation but it should hurt your rreputation. (My opiinion)

It does not hurt your reputation because you've broken no promise to the kid.

It MAY (but not always) cause the player to lose WE. This drop can be precipitous (a 70WE crashing into the teens) or it might be insignificant (from 70 to 64) in the bigger picture. Some players will accept it without incident, especially if they are buried behind several others at their listed position.

So if I break my promise of Victor Correl guarenteed starter, and guarenteed 20 mins that'll hurt my reputution? He averaged more than 20 mins his first game now all I need to play him is in 25 more games to average 560 minutes and i'll be good this season.

If you break your promise ***and he transfers*** you'll suffer a reputation hit. If the kid does not leave due to the broken promises, however, I do not believe there's any hit. On a 26-game schedule, generally 22+ starts is enough to meet a start promise. Minutes promises are likely satisfied if you meet 80 percent of the target figure, although I've never promised a kid 20 per game so I don't know if the math changes at all over where it is at the lower minutes levels. I suspect, however, that it does not. Exhibition and Conference Tournament games do not count toward promises. Only the regular season games will matter.

"Only the regular season games will matter" There is some good advice! Some people need to take notes on how to give good advice and how not to or just keep your mouth shut and get a mentor. I knew exhibition games didn't matter in promises as I didn't start him in the exhibition games. However I did start my freshman recruting class against Elizabeth City St, and Duke.

I didn't kmow that conference tournament games don't matter in a promise. However I am still going to clarity things with my mentor.

Yes if you break a promise it will hurt your reputation.

I would advise against giving 20 mins garunteed, it doesn't make that much of a difference between that and 15 mins, maybe a couple calls, and to carry out the promise is a lot harder, and hurts your team more.

You don't have to start him in every game, pretty sure it is 80% of the games

And just so you know his expectation is to play a total of 520 minutes during the regular season (26 games x 20 mpg). I've seen coaches mistakenly bench a kid with a few games to go because through the first 22 games they were averaging exactly 20mpg and thought by benching a guy they'd keep him at 20mpg. In other words, the expectation is a total of 520 minutes and not just 20mpg.

80% of the games? I think there is 27 games if your 1 and done in conference tournament and no National Tourney games. You haven't looked at my depth chart enough to come close to that evaulation. Where 20 mins a game isn't reasonable for a player who is going to start his junior senior year and a division 2 caliber player.

Their expectation is 20 minutes per game, I think you can get away with 80% of that just like starts but I'm not sure.

Promises don't count after the regular season. So that's 27 and 80% of that is about 22, I think the number might be lower but I don't know.

20 minutes is too high for a power forward with 39 REB, 13 P, and especially 55!!!! Stamina, he's going to be exhausted at the end of every game and he's not going to play well, just look at his stamina level at the end of your last game he was VERY tired, at 12 mins left in the game he was VERY tired, against good competition he is not going to be effective and he's not going to rebound well even against bad teams, only 4 against a bad sim team. I guess he can start for your team but I wouldn't touch him on my D3 team much less on my D2 team, he is not D2 caliber unless your talking about a bad one.

also, promises only last 1 year.

You typically have a hard time taking advice Coachward. Many people on here have tried to help you and I think you take things a personally.

Haha, I gave you that advice too, I guess I am good at giving advice. I'm assuming you are talking about me... For one I have a "mentor" persay, actually I have 2, and 1 of them is the same one as yours, but why would I need a mentor to give advice...

What we are saying is true, your/my/our mentor has said it to me before.

Side note. Back to your confusion about the things that guy wrote were clearer than, "I didn't start him in the exhibition game. However I did start my freshman recruiting class..." That's not clear, however is defiantly not the write word. A way to make that good is to say "I did not start him in the exhibition games, instead I played my freshmen" also, "where 20 mins isn't reasonable for someone that is going to start his junior and senior year" I'm guessing you missed a couple words here or meant to say something else besides where. To answer the question if it is a question, it is unreasonable if the guy has 55 Stamina

Dislike -1

What is incorrect there, why do you dislike that. I believe you are a part of a generation that was told not to accept criticism, and that you should only listen to yourself. I am giving you good solid advice, but I guess since I am giving you criticisms as well anything I say is now irrelevant apparently.

Do you understand some of the things I'm trying to tell you, your guy has 55 stamina and 39 REB, he shouldn't be playing 20+ mins a game he also has a D- IQ for your offense.
