I actually read this a while ago, and it's actually what drove this discussion in my team.

We see merit in the idea of choosing a young driveteam and letting them grow into their competitive shoes, but it's hard to take a stance that not only goes against so many team members, but also requires that we place our faith in untested hands.

There is natural appeal to the idea of giving everyone a shot, but during crunch time, we don't have that luxury. As such, it may be best to pick out a drive team in the weeks leading up to the 2014 FRC Season. Let the chips fall where they may, but we'll have qualitative and quantitative data that will help our leadership make a more informed decision.

The idea of "long haul" drivers is still up in the air (in my mind), but having a try-out schedule in place will help (a little).
