battle can get us close, but when we need that 1 big shot to get us over the hump he never makes it. or turns it over. or passes.

Brissett needs to be the guy at the end. Battle always pulls up. OB gives us some variety.
if there was ever a guy who could use one more yr to improve his draft stock, it’s him. Deep draft as well. Jumper needs so much work.
He’s not even seen as a first rder... what’s best case? Drafted 29th?If you can get yourself drafted with some guaranteed money, it makes more sense to get paid to work on improving your game than doing it for free with no security blanket in case of catastrophe. I'd love for Battle to buck the trend and come back for another year but I think he'll get an early second round evaluation, so he gone.
I'm not sure what people are talking about in this thread, Battle definitely makes some bonehead plays but he's also made a bunch of big shots throughout his short career here as Eric15 listed above.
He's made several game winners for us
This game was coaching (2-3 zone) and refs calls on contact inside both ways
I disagree. This game was a clear showing of our lack of interior offense. Our forwards can’t score and our center is invisible. On defense they are almost as bad.
He has also lost us several times in the end. Great one on one guy not great team guy. Definatley needs another year, but he will go anyways cause of intangibles.He's made several game winners for us

or being the only option most of the gameIt's almost like playing every minute of every game might affect your jumpshot

The same folks do this every year. No one is "ready". Ever
Also made late 3 @ FSU to send game to OT.Eh, that's too strong of a statement. He made the game winner against Maryland. He made a bunch of clutch threes vs. Georgetown. He hit a critical three late against Miami. He hit the buzzer beater at Clemson last year. Also, everyone remembers Gillons buzzer beater vs Duke but it was Battle who won that game for us with bucket after bucket late second half.
