This. Hutton will burst on the scene next year, same with Moss. Spend the entire year focusing on specific parts of their games. Rather than a few garbage minutes in a few games this year. That will do wonders for their games.
Hutton sounds like he has the defensive side down. Refine that this season, and develop a better shot, and we will have a player. A solid year to learn at the BCS level, develop under our coaches &systems, and strength & conditioning programs. Add significant minutes to earn playing time in games and we will be quite happy as Hawkeye fans when these 2 hit the floor...and we get them for 4 valuable years, instead of 3!
Could they add something this season?? Possibly. But nothing too significant, and it would only thin playing time all around. That wouldn't do anyone any good, nor make anyone happy.
I am actually more excited now about these 2, than I was at the beginning of the season. Coach must believe in these two, otherwise he wouldn't bother redshirting them. He wouldn't even think about it... Another year of maturity, building knowledge of the game and development like they have Never experienced will build two solid players. I like it.
