Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan0307, post: 1015729, member: 1743"] A guy going someplace for one year is going to want to play at least 25 minutes per game in his last year. If you are a transfer you aren't going to want to come to Syracuse and compete with a highly touted freshman and 3 other guards who have been in the system at least a year. Other schools, some with new coaches probably could offer him guaranteed playing time while we won't. I really think JB wants Gbinije to play around 25 minutes a game next year off the bench in both guard spots and possibly some time at forward. They probably like his height in the backcourt and think he might be able to be somewhat of a poor mans mcw. JB likes defense, and Gbinije brings that to the table. If he works on his shot and can become a better threat, it should give him more opportunities to get in the lane. I think the staff really likes his potential. [/QUOTE]
