Oso planning to go pro
Really dumb decision for Ed. Can't imagine this is something he's going to be proud of down the line.
You couldn't possibly be casting judgment on something you don't know everything or anything about, could you?
Looking forward to more fine performances by Theo and Jayce, as we have received the last few games. I am glad that Wojo upgraded the position.I have nothing but thanks to Ed for his hard work on behalf of the program, and I wish him well in whatever his life's endeavors might be.
Wonder who his roommate is
Since you obviously know all the facts, circumstances, and details surrounding his departure, perhaps you can fill us all in? It would be nice to know the whole factual story, so we can substantiate your opinions that it was a "really dumb decision," and not "something he's going to be proud of down the line."You couldn't possibly be casting judgment on something you don't know everything or anything about, could you?
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.
I wish him safe... Travels.
Lol. The dude quit in the middle of his senior season because he was unhappy with role. He'll never play another minute of college basketball. I wish he had stayed, but he got the minutes - or perhaps more - than he frankly deserved.So yes, I do think think down the road Ed will have wished he swallowed his pride and finished the season. We'll miss his 5 fouls, and we'll miss him more if JJ and Theo get injured and have to miss games. Outside of that, not sure there is much of a loss.Wish the kid well. But I will always think that quitting on your team is dumb decision. Don't give two fu**s if you agree or not.
Your post is rather unfortunate.
I mean I'm purely speculating here, but I can't help but wonder if he was told last year after the Hauser's left that he'd be playing more 4 this year, and hence why he worked on his jump shot all offseason. IF that is the case, and of course he ended up playing the 5 behind Theo and Jayce, I can understand why he'd be frustrated.
I thought it was pretty fair. I wished him well. I said I hoped he had stayed.The dude quit on his teammates, which is the real unfortunate bit here. Per the basketball program, he's staying in school, so its not like he's leaving because he has to move to deal with a family matter, or some other terrible circumstance. He quit because he was butthurt about his playing time. I wish Ed well, but you'll never see me be impressed with quitter.
Best wishes to Ed.It occurred to me that we saw MU begin to employ the 'Markus-less 2-3 zone' in the last game. I'd expect that trend to continue during his brief rest breaks and in specialty situations where Wojo has the ability to go offense/defense. It'll save wear and tear on the Center position and help protect those 10 fouls. I'll also be watching for the Centerless wrinkle to emerge pretty quickly. Cain?
You should bring that philosophy to an AA meeting.
