Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 3176839, member: 716"] No surprise, but I do. And I think (absent some inside knowledge of a crazy coincidence that these kids are all locker room disasters or something like that), you'd have to be nuts to dismiss it. If, 18 months ago, this kid was good enough to be the designated point guard of the future, what changed? He's not producing? We've got some evidence that the next three years of practice and game situations won't get him producing? It makes it very difficult to sustain a high-level program when a) you're relying mainly on four-year guys because you don't recruit McDonald's kids but b) the staff gives up on them after a fraction of that time. For 40 years, SU had success with Adrian Autrys and Jason Harts playing the role of productive seniors. Now those guys are benched and dissatisfied or just run off. [/QUOTE]
