Message: [QUOTE="LaxAddict38, post: 5381235, member: 9891"] The kid is either ready or he is not. Team has a lot of aspirations for this season. If he is ready to help now, he should. If he is not ready to help now, he should not. I trust the staff and their evaluations. Playing a kid before he is ready can negatively affect the confidence and career trajectory of any given player just as much as waiting too long can. 2 flip sides to the coin. I do not care about the "Age of transfer portal". If the coaches allow themselves to be held hostage by the wants, desires, and frustrations of any highly ranked 19 year old, because they are afraid of a future transfer, they are doomed regardless. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
