Can't remember where I heard this, they were either talking about rookies or new guys in the military going on their first combat patrols, the point is the same. At some point 2 months as a rooking or after 4 combat patrols you are no longer new. You are expected to know what you are doing.
So, the whole upper/underclassmen is a copout. Sophomores know what is needed and have the experience out there, the freshmen are going to figure out or not. This isn't youth hockey can't hold your hand and coddle you and that isn't happening at the next level.
All 6 played NCAA last year 5 know what it takes to win.
