I agree with your comments.  It's not at all about wishing them ill will or hoping that they flop in the NBA.  Hell, that only hurts us as a program.  If recruits can see how, as a program, that we can help them get to the next level and succeed, that only attracts more talent.  With that being said, again, I agree with Dollarbill in that I don't really see them much as program guys that I really like to follow as others who have played a much more significant role in the program. It's not a matter of blaming them for going when they did; it's just more that we didn't really get a chance to get to know these guys that jump so early.  What compounds the issue is when they jump before they are truly ready to compete and be successful in the NBA.  Although, once again, if the money is there (which obviously it is) then all the power and luck to our former Orange players.  I just hate to continue to see so many of our guys jump early to only end up playing in the D league or somewhere in Europe.
