the natural human tendency when you know you won't see the field, is to hold back a little bit. But when a freshman knows that he might be able to see the field a few times throughout the season, that could easily pay dividends in things as simply as being more mentally involved in practices, diet, the weight room and film study. A bunch of kids got playing time yesterday! I'm sure the overall morale of the team is a bit higher, as practices should have a little more "pop" to them. Finally a new rule that helps the college athletes!
