Message: [QUOTE="ROCuse, post: 974183, member: 3251"] Baye hasn't ever been the most talented player on the court in his tenure at SU, but he wasn't brought in for that. JB mentioned on his radio show yesterday that you need veteran players. Program type guys. Keita's attitude, hard work, hustle, and demeanor mean so much. I have to think that when other players see him going above and beyond off the court (going to SU hockey games, going out of his way to take pictures, interacting with fans, visiting students camped outside the Dome, etc) that it is INFECTIOUS. How great of a role model is he for other players? Works his butt off since day one and four years later he's sitting next to the pre-season ACC PoY representing SU on ACC media day. Guys like Keita make Syracuse basketball a better PROGRAM and I'll really miss him. [/QUOTE]
