We are going to play him right away. With some freshman, you throw them in and pull them out. Sometimes they play and sometimes they watch. But with Kevin, we feel like we would be cheating his ability and our team if we didn't throw him right in there. He will make some freshman mistakes, but we will live with those. He'll bring so much.
