to prevent them from having a late season slump.
Unfortunately, just about every team has something unfortunate happen with an important player on their team. To help not make this be a season breaker, I would strongly suggest that in the future that Coach Shyatt have more players play minutes throughout the season and continue that into the conference season. Coach Shyatt has typically played some players early and then when conference season comes along he cuts down on the number of players that see the court, so if something happens, as it has happened, Wyoming comes up short on depth. I really do think that it is wise to take your lumps earlier in the season with these guys and get them some real court time and continue that so at the end of the season your starters are not worn out and if you have a player go down then you aren't caught short. I respect the heck out of Coach Shyatt, but if I could give one piece of advice it would be this...develop depth with your young players and continue that in conference season so you have a deeper team at the end of the season.
