I feel like it's a case by case situation on when it's best for a particular player to leave. Jerami is a super athletic player and solid defender which bought him some time to develop his overall skill set. MCWs vision, length and defense is unique and valued in the NBA and was ready (rookie of the year). Ennis, as I said in my initial post, is a smart and steady point guard but he is below average athletically and he's small (a mini Kyle Anderson in style of play). In his particular case, i really do believe it would have served him well to work in college on every aspect of his game and his body to have a chance at an NBA career like the other comparable point guards I mentioned. I'm not a fan who think in terms of what's best for SU, as I have posted that Guerrier may have made the right decision to transfer. But, let's agree to disagree, it's happy hour time.
Food and wine are unreal in Naples and the surrounding region.Tyler is back on the court...
He is living a hell of a season.
Momma Mia!He is living a hell of a season.
I think if he stayed Grant might have stayed too. Not saying they weren't right to leave. Also I don't see why it would have stopped the decline after that anyway. But would have been good for JB if they gave a 2nd and 3rd year.I still think his leaving early to the NBA is the biggest reason for the start of SU’s decline. JB was not prepared for his leaving and we still haven’t had a true point guard since he’s left. Ennis made the correct decision but JB whiffed big time in recruiting after he left.
I think the exact moment of the start of the decline was his 3pt shot against Pitt.I still think his leaving early to the NBA is the biggest reason for the start of SU’s decline.

They were the ugliest uniforms I’ve ever seen and we played ugly that day against BC.Utter nonsense.
It was this...
You can say in a vacuum that he made the right choice because if he didn't go when he did he may never have had the NBA career that he did. You're assuming that staying means he would have had a better NBA career. That is no sure thing.In a vacuum, how does one say he made the right decision? His NBA stats quick
summary, 4 yrs, 6 teams, 4 ppg, 2 apg. And whatever in Europe/Asia. Yippee. That
sort of career is something any journeyman has achieved. Maybe, maybe, he left at
what his peak was in college, but nobody knows. And he could've had that career
at any point.
But I will certainly agree that SU wasn't ready for him to leave, and it really has put
a dent into the program it hasn't shaken.
