Honestly I don't think this game would have been as close as it was if Buzz Williams would have had a better rotation going. Trent Lockett did not play defense at all and had many of Marquette's turnovers. Buzz, I think you would have been better off playing Steve Taylor Jr. over Trent. I understand that he is a senior and you want to get him in, but like you said at senior night he is not the best player on the team.(P.S. I don't even think he deserves a starting spot)
Another guy that could have had less playing time was Chris Otule. He was playing really slow defense on #15 from Davidson and he allowed him to score on easy layups under the basket. He was also not crashing the boards. You could have easily subbed in Devante Gardner in for him. He would have played lock down defense and would have converted some and ones and drawn many fouls where he would have gone all automatic at the free throw line.
I hope there will be a better rotation against Butler because if we don't it is a lost cause.
