Nait George transferring to Pitt

[Briancuse]

I really thought he hated Cuse fans so much he would wait until the absolute last day to enter.

Why would that matter?

 

[NortheastOHSUfan]

No great loss

 

[Cusefan0307]

He’s got a big offer from Kentucky. I expect him to take that

He’ll get Pope fired.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

I admit I was super excited about him he didn’t have a good Robin

Showed no signs of Batman, regardless of a Robin or not

 

[Hopkins16]

UVA, The Brotherhood, or Miami. Just my gut.

UVA to be with Red, or the brotherhood for the dollars and to mimic Maliq’s success.

Wait who?

Nait’s “I don’t care if we win or lose as long as the check clears” attitude was never going to jive with GMac’s super competitive, winning is everything attitude.

What is the basis for this story about Nait not caring? And the idea that the players didn't play hard?

 

[Bulldog04]

Wait who?

NG

Anyone who watched the games could tell they werent playing hard. It was common theme on game threads. Lack of effort also reflected in lack of attendance, fans dont pay to watch that kind of effort.

George going to Kentucky is great if true. One less school with big money to compete for a PG we do want.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

NG

Oh jeeze. Thought maybe u shifted to DF. Pope needs Jesus.

Why are people expecting that he’ll be the starter? Kentucky is in blank check mode still.

Kentucky didn’t learn anything this year about putting a team together.

 

[BEGood]

Kentucky didn’t learn anything this year about putting a team together.

These schools with big money are idiots

 

[23Zone]

Among other things, NG was absolutely atrocious running the fast break. Just awful

 

[Todd23]

He also never truly seemed that invested in winning. Plenty of games where we were losing and he’s smiling and joking around at times.

Like when he and Freeman were happy to lose to North Carolina?

 

[tptcuse]

Yeah, it was mind boggling. How do you get as many assists as he did and maybe one a game was on a fast break?

 

[sufan59]

He’ll get Pope fired.

His two previous coaches are out of jobs…..

 

[phil77]

I was one of the few on the board who didn't want NAIT to begin with. I don't think he is good at all and didn't think he was good before he got here.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I can’t wait to see who GMAC goes after in the portal for point guard. I wouldn’t be surprised if they might already know who that might be.

Exactly! The announcers doing the games even commented on the lack of effort they saw. I think there was one game where Devo held back what he really wanted to say because he was so embarrassed watching the OLE defense and the passes directly to the other team. George had plenty of stupid turnovers and then never hustled back to prevent the bucket.

 

[BEGood]

Is it crazy to say that we should get some of his nil back? Like a coaches buyout

 

[Bulldog04]

He made a sickening amount of money this year

You mean like this arrangement in MLB:

The Chicago White Sox invoked a "diminished skills" clause in Frank Thomas' contract after the 2002 season, citing a decline in performance following injury-plagued years. This provision enabled the team to drastically cut his base salary and defer over $10 million, triggering tense negotiations, a potential free agency, and his eventual departure from the club.
