The Bruins have started off the year going 5-1 but it hasn’t been pretty. An overtime win against Central Arkansas and only single digit halftime leads against South Carolina State and UC Irvine has exposed a weakness that the Bruins were not expecting…depth.
Coming into this season, Coach Steve Alford was excited about being able to play 10 or 11 guys. But with the indefinite suspension of three Bruins players, Coach Alford has been forced to go back to a mainly eight man rotation.
One player that has made the most of his situation is Alex Olesinski.
