Why did Buzz pull Otule back to the Bench?

If this is the case, why keep him?

Because Marquette University is an honorable institution.  I think all of us would have a real problem if we "scrapped" a player because he was injured.

Otule will have his time next year when we're a less of a run and gun outfit.  He is not quick enough to chase Harangody around.  Hayward, Burke and even Hazel did a good job on Harangody, but the guy wasn't the Big Easy POY for nothing.  He is good and hit some ridiculous shots.

They will get PT next year, we are trying to win this year.

Exactly.  The idea that we need anything from either one of them this year is laughable.  There is an 8 man rotation in place right now - the five starters plus Hazel, Butler and Acker.  That's all you really need.  You can steal a couple of minutes with Otule and Fulce here and there, but it would be foolish to expect anything from either one right now.
