Playing time for the 2026/27 Freshmen

BigMike — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 12:16:08 +0000

Looking at a couple articles the writers indicate freshmen on NCAA division one teams play between 14 to 19% of total available team minutes per game. The numbers come out to 28 minutes (at 14%) to 38 minutes per game (at 19%).

(200 total team player minutes per game = 5 players X 40 minutes)

In Karvala, Manhertz and Alexander-Moody, DeVries has recruited 3 very good high school prospects but how much will any of these players contribute during the 26-27 season? (Guess we include Acimovic as a redshirt frosh if he's still with the team.)

I realize I am asking an unfair question because the roster construction for the 26-27 team has not been set. Practices are going to take place sometime down the road so we don't know how the frosh players are performing.

I'd like to see the freshmen get 30 total minutes per game. I see the playing time issue as important as DeVries has many times stated his team development process involves freshmen. Does development involve playing time?

How many minutes would you like to see the freshmen play next year?

I guess it's the only way to protect patriots from being sent to the gulags by Democrats.

Neuralink is also working on restoring sight and even artificial limbs that can move similar to their predecessors. Amazing stuff!

Denver University Stands in the way

CO. Hoosier — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 13:11:04 +0000

of a BIG sweep of football, men’s basketball, women's basketball, and hockey. In the semi-final, Michigan pounded Denver with superior depth and neutralizing Denver’s usual aggression. Michigan out shot Denver 52-26 in a double overtime game. In one power play, DU did not take a shot. Yet Denver pulled it out with some amazing puck handling and a very hot goalie.

Denver v. Wisconsin for the championship. Would be Denver’s 11th.

I hope we don’t have to watch another mid major roster try to compete in the B10 again!
