How Bad was Deonte?

[muwarrior69]

I don't like banning people. They have the right to their opinion, but how many times can you beat a dead horse. Perhaps the mods could nail him to the bench for a month.

I kinda like this thread, actually. To watch this many people be irritated at the same time by the same person is rather impressive.

I'm not irritated at all.

Not even sure which person you're referring to - ha!

[wadesworld]

You would think so. I put Ners on ignore yesterday, but because he posts so frequently on the same issues that piss people off, people quote him -- and that cannot be IGNORED/HIDDEN. He is literally a one-man wrecking crew. Please don't feed the animals.

Exactly.  Ignoring him becomes pointless because every post of his gets quoted.

Nerds is being himself again, but there is no doubt: Deonte is legit. Tremendous & painful loss.

Wouldn't mind Wojo tryin to holla at Caleb Swanigan...

Clearly Burton did not fit into Coach Wojo's system. Bye bye and good luck to him

My question is will Deonte be a junior when he becomes eligible to play again?

He will have 1.5 years remaining if he transfers now and picks up after the first semester ends at his new school.

He will have 2.0 years remaining if he transfers now, and redshirts the 2015-16 season.  You can't split a redshirt over two seasons.

  Duke is in the mix right now.

Steal two recruits from Izzo? Count me in.

Maybe Coach K is just tugging at his ears in order to tell him how great Coach Wojo is, like he did with Hank

I like the way you think.

You can red-shirt without a legitimate injury? Isn't red-shirt status litigated if that is the right word?

Don't they look into that?

What do you mean "Coach Wojo's system?" Coach Wojo does not have a sytem....yet. This is not the Pro's!

That is my problem with the whole thing. What system? He needed to grow as a coach and . . . ADAPT.

What system? If he had that type of deal then he should have told these guys that before when he first got here.     

Nothing should have been established until they had Fischer back to see what they have with everyone playing close to their natural spots.

You can't implement a system in 7 games....I'm sorry. Kevin Ollie did but he was at UConn already before he took over for Calhoun.

You are not going to find out if he does not play. And you have these coaches who say, "well he did not show me this or that in practice."

Practice is not games...some coaches think it is. It's not. In 7 games you are not going to have 12 Wojo's running around. That takes time.

Wrong move.

What "move" did wojo make? How are you able to determine if wojo didn't do everything in his power to keep burton?

[bilsu]

I of course do not know what went on, but Wojo has repeatedly said he only wants players that want to play for MU. Given that, he may of not tried to talk Burton out of transferring.
