In Reply to: He's set to receive way more PT this season at UCLA. posted by Michael.Walter.Cronin on July 15, 2025 at 16:50:48
I'm not so sure about that. He averaged 9 minutes as a freshman and 13 as a sophomore, and UCLA won every game in which he played more than 15 minutes. While I'm not arguing that he necessarily deserved more playing time—that's a separate discussion—it's understandable that he might have concerns. Calling it an excuse doesn't seem fair, especially since many questioned his minutes last year. It's also purely speculative whether he would have started or played more at UCLA compared to Michigan. We'll never know the answer to that question.
