Joe Girard is returning

[EastCoast2]

Not sure why so many think he's leaving, or think it's a strong possibility. He's a competitor who has exceled at every level (of multiple sports) his entire life. In my opinion, if JB sits him down and tells him he will come off the bench in 2021-2022 and that Kadary will be the starting PG day 1, I think Joe has a better situation to stay at SU, compete for the 3rd guard spot on a very good team, and then be the presumptive starting PG as a senior in 2022-2023. This feels like a much better option than trying to transfer to BC or UMass or a lesser program.

Not to mention he has 3 years left.

You aren't trying to apply logic to what young people do, are you? That doesn't often work for old people, yet alone young people.

Let's face it, there is only one person we are really waiting on.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

He ain't leaving now.

Not any longer.

I was referring to Chaz Owens...

Chaz can dance rings around Joe.

Unless they're onion rings.

 

[two3zone]

So who from the portal wants to sit behind Joe?

Ahhhh, so sorry!

That is the rub - or Jimmy ( who I am not opposed to giving a spot too). We are running out of the most attractive thing portal players want (outside of a bag maybe) PT.

Symir Torrence is the guy and would do it.

 

[orangemass]

He needs to come back in shape... If not I will be highly disappointed

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Maybe Joe should have been sold on the Dion role.

[andyw715]

Well that didn't age well...

 

[MDCuse]

He's leaving Marquette because he didn't get PT

He didn't get PT at Marquette. Why would he leave to go somewhere he will continue to not get PT? My guess is he's going to a smaller program to get more run.

I feel like we’re being trolled at this point.

It's a bad freaking nightmare.

 

[djcon57]

i can't wait to boo him in the dome.

no.

 

[HoustonCuse]

If you don't like the coach and don't like the players. There is a solution. Find a new team to root for.

 

[orangeinohio]

His stats this season aren’t a whole lot different than last year. His points are down but not a lot. Turnovers up slightly. His assists are the same.

I’m saying this because I don’t think he’s a lost cause. His hair looks terrible but his game can rebound.
