I agree that Ayala is a better option than Waters because of his ability to play both the point and shooting guard positions, AND his height is more ideal for the zone.  In theory, I agree with you.

But it's my opinion that we have one liability and one unknown commodity at PG now, and we have no guarantee that Ayala will reclassify, despite conflicting reports.  Sometimes, as a program you have to make some concessions. I agree that a grad transfer that will only take up one year is a good plan.  But I don't think people realize how pivotal 2017 could be.  A second consecutive NIT might be disastrous for our recruiting.

I'm saying that depth and gambles may be necessary to insure the long term success of the program.  We already face an uphill battle with negative recruiting against us due to JB's age.  Combine that with another subpar year and that spells trouble.

In a normal year, I'd say you are 100% right.  Just not this year.  It's fine if you don't agree.  ✌
