Message: [QUOTE="SaintTristan, post: 63121, member: 385"] the kid has been playing organized basketball for only a few years. give him time to learn the game before you dismiss him. A more legitimate concern re: melo is whether he needs to take a year off to mature and deal with his personal issues. personally, i think the answer to that is yes. but i defer to JB. i support melo, i think he is probably a good person and i think he is going to be a very good player before he leaves SU, but that little cbssports blurb about him and SU over the summer was not good. when you get publicity for being a school whose athletes abuse women you need to rethink your strategy on this stuff. anyway, hopefully fab melo is past all of this. he has the tools to be great.
