Agree ... Reye needs minutes in the abscence of foul trouble. He has potential unlike some others not starting for ISU. Given ISU poor depth on the bench I can not figure out why he does not get as many minutes as possible as his improvement would be meaningful for ISU come post season.

Word is he took a Cialis
Doug Collins gets waaaaaay too much credit too. 16-10, 13-12, 17-9. Not one NCAA Bid. SadBirdman85 said:I think Rey will be fine down the road. The one thing he does well is shoot free throws. That helps with trusting to leave him in games.
We can talk about developing players and comparing them to former greats but it means nothing to me. Dinma had a nice career here that in the end amounted to jack shit in the big picture. We haven't accomplished anything big here in awhile so comparing current players to formers who never won conference titles or took us to the dance doesn't mean a whole lot to me. We are not gonna land McDonald's All Americans but hopefully we can land some that take us to the next level.

I swear some posters expect ISU to land fully formed McD's All-American recruits for crapssakes.
Dinma looked like he was shot-putting a 10-pound weight his freshman year. Seems to me Idowu
who looks light-years ahead of Dinma at a similar stage, has a similar work ethic.
Let's let him develop?
Jesus. All I’m saying is let’s not crown him the second coming of Patrick’s Ewing.
This board has a desperate habit of making mountains of molehills.
Also, 9 minutes is not a lot considering we’re going about 7 deep these days. Just sayin’...relax on the hyperbole.

I’m seeing a guy that barely sees the floor on a team that has probably the weakest/thinnest bench in the NCAA.
But, as Redbird fans, hope is all we got.
ekeyfanclub said:The days of putting 2 players on the post over. All it does is clog the lane. That's why Fayne and Rey need to be paired with a stretch 4. This is where Bruninga being out hurts. Milik is the 4 on this team most of the time, but he really is position less which is where basketball is moving to.
