So we should just release him?
I misread your post. I thought you wanted to release him. I agree.
So we should just release him?
Well, he wasn't forced to sign a LOI with Syracuse. If he wouldn't ever want to play at Syracuse, why did he sign a LOI at Syracuse?Anyone that thinks he would even want to play at SU is on some hydroponics
We don't need no stinkin' solid info.Have we actually seen any solid info that he wants to play at Cincy ?
If that's the case I hope JB tells him good luck in the G League or Europe next year.Anyone that thinks he would even want to play at SU is on some hydroponics
Or surrounding states. Kentucky is close to Cincinnati.If this entire saga is actually about holding him to an LOI... please hold him to the LOI. Or at the very least take measures to ensure that he can't play in a college located in OH next year.
Who has hydro?!Anyone that thinks he would even want to play at SU is on some hydroponics
It amazes me how many want to just cut the cord and let him, a 5 star player, walk into any school he wants, quite possibly a team that will be a potential barrier to our quest for a title.
Moving on is what we did when he was going to the G league and we only suffered a direct loss. The impact would be significantly greater if he is playing for another high level university next year.
I'd rather hold him to the LOI and never play him before I would risk him being used against us. No way.
That would be a dick move
No what the kid did was a d move.That would be a dick move
Seems there are two issues here:
1. If he really wants to play college ball do the Orange still want him?
Maybe.
But my feeling is... move on.
The Orange have a strong team without him.
And who needs a guy who doesn't really want to be with you...even a guy with one-and-done" talent?
A team needs players who are all in.
2. Is he just trying to game the system?
Playing games so he can get out of a commitment and go where he'd rather be (at least for now)?
If that's the case the Orange should set as many restrictions as possible.
If he wants to play a year in college...perhaps leave an out for Binghamton or SUNY Plattsburgh.
That would be a dick move
If Battle is back and the kid from Pitt or Braswell are coming than I say moving on should be a real consideration. Having him for a year under these circumstances might cause more trouble than its worth.
If Battle is gone and Pitt and Braswell aren't in then we are a border line team and should hold him to the LOI.
He can move on...right to the Gatorade LeagueIf the kid doesn't want to play here, it's prolly best to let him move on... I think there should be some conditions - like can't go to any ACC league teams, UCONN or Washington.
That said, if he's decided to come back to college ball and we can't convince him to stay, it's not really a great reflection on our recruiting staff either.
Not sure if buy anything his coach is saying he seems to be a bit of a clown who is in it for himself.
That would be a dick move
Oh I agree 100%Not sure if buy anything his coach is saying he seems to be a bit of a clown who is in it for himself.
