Message: [QUOTE="Madbiker, post: 1028959, member: 312"] I think JB made it pretty clear to Ennis that he didn't think he should go this year and that he would have a better chance for a longer, more lucrative career if he stayed in school and developed his game and strength. Ennis chose to leave anyway which is his right. Probably same with Grant though not as outspoken publicly. So I don't know that JB could have done any more. There is no doubt though that Pitino has been very successful lately in getting his stars to return to school after deep tourney runs. I mean how the heck do Russ Smith and Luke Hancock (tourney MOP) stay? How does he get Harrell to stay when everyone has him 15-20? No doubt Rick is a slicker salesman. [/QUOTE]
