While Miller again worked Trier into starter’s minutes (28) off the bench Thursday at OSU, he indicated Thursday he might not want to re-insert him back into the starting lineup.

At least not yet.

“It’s hard for us to make a change right now because we’ve won so many in a row and things are going well,” Miller said. “And it’s not like he’s not playing minutes he deserves. There may be a time we might look at that but we’re just taking it one day at a time right now.”

As it is, Trier’s presence allowed Miller to play his eight top players all between 20-28 minutes Thursday, a factor he said in the Wildcats’ stronger finishes lately.
