Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 2037795, member: 40"] I think you're barking up the wrong tree. He's not a freshman like you claimed--he's a third year player who had game experience. He had a year off to physically develop, learn the system, acclimate to new teammates, and improve his skill set. None of those things happened. I haven't seen one person in this thread claim that the eye injury wasn't a setback. But said eye injury occurred a full year after he'd been on campus, working with our coaches, with full access to the Carmelo K. Anthony center on a daily basis. This injury didn't happen to a frosh center entering college to begin his career--it happened to a guy about to begin his third year playing at the collegiate level. The coaches have had plenty of time to appraise him. His struggles didn't just begin with the eye injury. [/QUOTE]
