Message: [QUOTE="Jasoncuse, post: 2199504, member: 470"] I hate that train of thought. Isn't it up to the coaching staff to make sure kids are as ready as possible to play? You'd think a kid with 4 years of college under his belt would be able to pick up the system, at least as fast as some freshman. Maybe some bad habits need to be broken, but if a grad transfer is around all summer, why can't he be as ready to play in November, as any other new comer? Gillon seemed to understand the system, but wasn't any good at it and didn't seem to interested in being a defender. White showed up in late August. I think if a kid like Thorpe comes in after his graduation and plays with his teammates for a few months over the summer and talks with the staff, it wouldn't have a negative impact on his play. We need a scorer and another ball-handler, which he'd be a great fit for. [/QUOTE]
