Message: [QUOTE="SUFaninNJ, post: 5747637, member: 2376"] Good lord, I actually wrote three sentences, not one. Yaxel was the number one rated player in the portal last year. I promise you that I would not be adverse to SU bringing in the top player in the portal regardless of if they started or not. I have never once stated that I don't think SU should bring in bench players. My concern is that that is all that we'll bring in. Jaquan Carlos was supposed to come to SU as a backup but ended up starting because they didn't bring in another point guard. Call me jaded. Call me scarred. I'll just feel better when SU eventually (hopefully) brings in players that are ready to produce at a P4 level. It would be a bonus if they have a bit of a history of already having done it. EDIT- I see that you were referring to Johnson, a part time starter who had 3 double-doubles in his lone year at Illinois. Why would I not want a player like that on my team? [/QUOTE]
