    One of my favorite players. Is he still being slowed by whatever illness he had recently?

    His minutes remain in single digits, despite Duruji losing a lot of time due to foul trouble and Castleton still not 100%.

    Without Jitoboh, he should be our first big off the bench at the "4/5" combination ( paired with Duruji.)

    Instead CMW seems to be using 4 guards and not sure how that is going to work against the teams we are playing the SEC stretch run.

    Good questions. He doesn't seem as active now.

    Yeah, I expected Felder to have a much bigger role on this team by this point in the season. He looks fairly skilled and paying attention on the court. Not sure what's going on with his minutes.

    Felder is a Junior. He has two more years if he wants them.

    He needs more minutes especially with Duruji struggling

    He had 2 quick 3s today, then nothing. A bit of a head scratcher.

    He needs to play more consistent minutes if he doesn’t see 15 minutes a game he’s not going to be a factor

    I think it's a combination, doesn't get enough minutes, but also not aggressive enough when he is in. I've always liked his skill set. Just my opinion from the couch tho.

    Do you think he could play a few minutes per game at the "3" along with a Castleton and Duruji?

    We could certainly use better interior defense and rebounding

    started tonight but despite getting the first two baskets and added a couple of blocks only played 16 minutes and not much in the second half

    Duruji only played 7 minutes and looks like we went small most of the game with Fleming playing the "4" down the stretch

    Total mystery that he didn't get more time. Feels like White only knows how to play a guard heavy line-up. Hopefully next year he sticks with the Gators for another year and a new coach utilizes his skill set.
