I've never really figured it out. My opinion was always that Marvin preferred the "consistency" with vets (in quotes there because there's no way to really guess an unknown's consistency until it becomes a known). But then sometimes those players don't ever catch on anywhere else, either (and, in fairness, sometimes they do).
Whatever the reasoning there, I still think the best way to develop a player is in game. Camps and all are great, but a guy can't really show you what he is until he's lined up against someone trying as hard as he is.
