Sacar Anim 3rd on the team in minutes? You heard it here first (and probably last).

For those that don't want 1300 words of analysis, have at this.

I see Sacar with 10 minutes at the SG and which allows for having 4 shooters and/or another Big on the floor. I agree with the 3 most minutes.
Against Carroll College, the 9 scholarship players all played between 15 and 28 minutes.
I think that will be typical. But most players will see their minutes vary greatly from game to. Injuries, foul trouble, matchups, and who has the hot hand will be the determining factors.
Markus and Sam easily get the most minutes. Chartouney has a clear role as our best distributor. The rest will mix and match.
Looks like a pretty good take to me, although I'd revise:
Sam: 28 (optimum performance level - banging at Big East level 30+ per night takes a tol.)
Chartouney: 18 (Not sold he'll be effective against high major competition.)
Take those 12 minutes and Bailey and Cain fight for those 12.
When we get to Big-East, things seem to change...The cream rises to get the minutes. Am I just imagining it?
With Sacar being the most polished starting off, I agree he'll get a lot early on.
Curious to see who steps up.
Yeah, it's really difficult to find fault with the breakdown, but I can't imagine a 10 man rotation in BE play. That said, I can't tell you how you cut anyone out of that list.

Today, its hard to tell, but 10 games in we'll see how everyone fits into the offense. Things should be different this year having a pass-first PG and having some depth at the 4/5 spots. That said, things are likely to vary from game to game based on matchups and game plans. I can see guys like Theo, Jamal, Ed, and Brendan averaging double digit minutes for the year but having games where they only get 3-5 minutes due to matchups being less than ideal.
Overall, the above table seems pretty reasonable to me. Maybe give Brendan a few more minutes and pull a few away from Ed or Matt, but even that is just a slight tweak.
