I'd like to see Greene get more minutes too. I think that's a battle of wills betwixt Self and Greene. Ummmm, coach gonna win that one. Greene's got a ton of physical talent - very live body.

I'd love to see Frankamp get some more minutes, but in no way is he better than Mason or Tharpe. He is somewhat of a defensive liability right now.
Tharpe, despite what some here might think, is actually playing very well this season. He is getting 5 assists per game. His assists to TO ratio is something like 2.5 to 1. He has hit a lot of clutch 3 pointers this season. Yes, he still has that occasional brain fart (3 pointer late against SDSU with no rebounders under the basket, but he is playing very well overall.
Mason is kind of up and down but I've been pleasantly surprised by his offensive skills. He just needs to learn to play PG. And I'm certain that Self believes that his defensive skills are above Frankamp's right now, which is a big factor in who gets PT.
