Let 'em grow free: it's worked pretty well so far, and it's spreading.he first team we remember really noticing like this was the great '89 Illinois team. Lou Henson started Nick Anderson, Steve Bardo, Kendall Gill and Kenny Battle and brought Marcus Liberty off the bench.
All six guys were between 6-5 and 6-8 and all of them were more or less interchangable.
It's a lot better, to us anyway, than a rigid system based on numbers and roles.
