This is worrisome. If my memory serves correct, HW didn't have very many other major P5 offers (VaTech maybe?) and we were his "dream school". I'd be surprised if JB promised HW siginifacnt minutes with Battle and Howard here - but maybe he was told he'd be the 3rd guard. But I don't think any of us expected HW to come in and have a major role, even without Thorpe around. I'm sure a lot of us could see Frank and Tyus playing 36 minutes each in ACC play with HW getting 8 minutes if Thorpe wasn't here. I assumed HW/his family saw the same coming in,  but maybe not.

Waiters wasn't happy his freshman year - it worked out
MCW wasn't happy his freshman year - it worked out
Cooeny didn't play his freshman year - it worked out

Hopefully HW can just look back the past few years and see that it isn't often JB throws freshman guards into big time roles. It even took some time with Tyus last year. Next year, HW will clearly be the 1st guard off the bench assuming Battle declares. Then, Frank will leave, Goodine will come in, and I'd say there's a decent shot HW starts here as a junior - which is par for the course for the most part lately for our guards.
