So much to think and talk about today, but I noticed that that Johnny D played 14 players in their 35 point win last night, and that 10 of them played for 14 or more minutes. Regardless of the competition, I was glad to have seen that and thought there might be some interesting comparisons to be made.

However, lo and behold, for the season the Cardinals have 9 players averaging double figure minutes (12.9 minutes or more per game). Duke's numbers for this year were 9 players (averaging 10.6 or more). Last year (D. Nelson's senior year) we had 7 players (14.9 minutes), and in JJ's senior year it was 7 players (19.9 minutes).

Interesting to me, at least, and probably not probative of much, other than that each team (and year) is different from another. That conclusion is much different from what I first expected when looking at the Stanford box score.
