Tommy Spagnolo

Why is Spagnolo not getting any playing time. I've seen this kid play and he could definately contribute. I believe it's because he had to walk on after messing up at Radford. Also is he injured he hasn't been in the last 10 games?

His biggest problem is that he is averaging a foul every 4 minutes of play. That's the equivalent of 5 fouls per half.

Dog house
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.

Using those stats and that logic his best contribution would be the 12 rebounds and 2 assists a game. Other players that are getting minutes are averaging enough fouls per minute to put them out of the game if they played forty. Tommy is in someone's dog house and his "Forte" is not being used to the team's advantage.

He only has two assists and four points for the entire season.

Of course, there is a role for a hacker. There does seem there is a use for his skill. That's five more fouls to give down low.
