“We’re gonna play the guys that give us the best chance to win. I make all our decisions based on winning, who can play the best. It doesn’t make any difference if you’re a fifth-year senior or a freshman. If you’re the guy that can go out there – and if you took all the players on our team, you think the players on our team don’t know who the best players are? They absolutely do. So if you’re a coach and you don’t play the best players, you’re not gonna have the respect of your team because they know who the best are. They know who they have confidence in. They know who they trust and respect that are gonna go be able to be accountable to do their job. You can’t lose sight of that.
“So it really has nothing to do with age. It has everything to do with accountability and are you dependable to go out there and do your job. Whether a good thing happens or a bad thing happens, you’ve gotta play the next play. So we use all these things as learning experiences so guys do grow and develop the kind of maturity they need so that they can play in difficult circumstances, and obviously, guys with experience should be able to do that better. But they have to prove that they can do it just like the young guys do.”
