My intentions are only good ones. B.J. is a talented young man, with the emphasis on "young". Mr. Johnson seems dead set against any kind of consideration of redshirting his son for next year; he is really looking forward to competing for significant minutes. That's all great.
 
I'm just saying that to the neutral observer, we will have Fair, Grant, Gbinije and the other frosh Roberson all competing with him. That's five forwards, not counting that if none of our bigs leave for the pros, he'll also have Coleman or Christmas taking some time at one of the forward spots. And what if McCullough should be successful in reclassifying to this class, too?
 
That's a lot of competition, and B.J. just turned 17. Some of these kids will be 4 or 5 years older than him next year, and more physically ready for Big East competition. There's nothing wrong with waiting for your body to catch up with your skills. I just hope Dad isn't setting his sights too high or too unrealistically for his son, so at this time a year from now, we don't have someone grumbling about transferring away. You don't need that for team chemistry.
