Should Vandenburg play more?

I say yes. The kid is seven one. He played quality minutes aganist Wake in the first half. He scored, rebounded, and blocked shots. Why doesnt Gott play him more? The kid doesnt have to score just take up space, block some shots, rebound, and play defense. Howell, and Calvin are logging alot of minutes.

RE: Should Vandenburg play more?

I think so

RE: Should Vandenburg play more?

To be honest, I haven't seen him play enough to know. I think he did fine in the Wake game, but they suck. How he would do against Duke or Miami is a different story.

RE: Should Vandenburg play more?

I saw him play a decent number of minutes vs. Miami OH. He's not that great and I wouldn't feel comfortable with him taking up a lot of minutes unless needed.

I agree with you. He should be getting more minutes--for sure.

RE: Should Vandenburg play more?

I know this thread will eventually turn into mush....but I will give it a try

One of the things that frustrates some Heels fans is how at the beginning of year Roy plays a million different line ups - many line ups that just don't work together. Many fans feels it costs the Heels some games. However, what it does is develop role players that you can "trust" when they enter the game. These players have played signficant role for the Heels over the years...IMHO

I think State has two players they must develop quickly. Lewis and Vanderberg...actually De Thaey would have been a third. Vanderberg has always seemed to not hurt the pack when his is in IMO - he is not the best player but he doesn't disrupt the flow.

Developing those players to help during tough times - foul prone games, players hurt or not shooting well - is essential

RE: Should Vandenburg play more?

Absolutely not. Keep on keeping on with the 6-7 man rotation. Depth off the bench is highly overrated, and will not help you one iota come tournament time.

I wonder what would make Hansy more (or even "as") qualified than Gott, to make that decision..???

Hmmm...

RE: Should Vandenburg play more?

Even if playing him more doesn't help State at tournament time (when everybody's bench tends to get shorter), next year is another matter. He has another year of eligibility after this one, and there's a good chance State will lose four of its five starters after this year. He isn't going to get much better sitting on the bench.
