was interesting yesterday, but it ended up really working out for the Wildcats. In my opinion it was one of those things that is a hard move to make, but when you make it you know it's going to work. After covering York as a recruit you get to know that he really is a guy who plays the game with a lot of emotion and a lot of his success is based on confidence from his coaching staff.

Miller putting him into that starting lineup gives him the confidence that he's not going to get benched, and it allows RHJ to come of the bench in a role that he plays perfectly. It's probably pretty hard for a coach to start a guy who hasn't played his best over a guy who has made a big impact this season like Hollis-Jefferson has, but it almost ends up being the best solution with Brandon Ashley out.

We'll have to see how it plays out moving forward, but I like the move by Miller last night.
