Forgotten players

Our attention goes where there is movement and energy. In all the excitement over the players Coach Beard is bringing in, some of whom had fairly gaudy stats at lower levels, we seem to have forgotten about Kemy Osse and Stetson Billings. And, who knows, maybe we still will be forgetting them at the end of the season. But they are both mature and presumably stronger after a season of weight training. Neither of them played huge minutes under Shields, and right now there is no reason to think that they will play a lot under Beard. But you just never know. Their particular abilities may fill a need in his system. His recruiting has been so heavily on offensive skills that he may need a few players who can play (will play) defense. Stetson was a pretty good rebounder for his size. Time will tell.
