Good points about Roche. Was able to gain a ton of experience. Had not looked it up, but that is impressive that SoCon 11th ranked conference. I do value actual D1 game time experience. I know I have had this debate with sman over the years - with my position valuing game experience vs practice. I do get that practice and workouts and training are super important, I just am of opinion that the pressure and speed of game experience is hard to replicate and getting some minutes in games is very valuable. I do think this helps Roche "adjust" as he will be more adjusting to system than speed of the game. Of course I am hoping that Nelson going up against Gilly in practice for a year gets him up to speed quickly.
