Wojo will play match-ups -- when opponents play 2 bigs, he now has options to do so, or maybe he'll want to force the opposing coach's hand.

He also will go with whichever player is doing the job better in a particular game or stretch of a game -- something that he has regularly done and that most coaches do.

One of Wojo's strengths during his time at Marquette has been his sense for the 5 position, IMHO, as he almost always has played the right guy at the right time for the right reasons. I have confidence he will continue to do a good job allocating minutes to our bigs.
I agree with this analysis.

This is a sound observation. He knew when to go to Matt over Luke. He juggled Ed and Theo very well. And this year, Heldt was instrumental in that Xavier win. The 5 is a place where Wojo has been good at pulling the right strings.

The thought of someone literally juggling Ed and Theo made me laugh.
