Let’s never forget that this poster made his bones predicting Henry would be here for four years.

This is the kind of mentality that we need to get rid of as a culture.  Who are you say he was lying about mental health issues? The kid had every right to put his mental health first.  I'm glad that the younger generation is starting to recognize that.

We have a loooooooooong way to go until people respect Mental Health the same as Cardiology, Oncology, etc ..

Remember Nick Noskowiak . Said he had mental health issues which really was an excuse for other problems.

You do realize the issues NN was dealing with oftentimes have their root in mental health issues right?

I admitted to wearing the MU rose colored glasses about Henry staying.
I think if Henry stayed Four years we would have had a natty or a FF for sure . I can around pretty quickly once it was clear he was leaving .

You are a teacher and around kids that play sports . They get worked up about this stuff . There were  some initial tweets from Carton  at the time complaining he did not fit into Ohio States plans .  That means he was pissed  off about his role.

Actually, you were still holding out hope for his return into April 2016, only days before it became official.

Not true . I was posting Henry’s  NBA Draft.net mock draft the whole time as well as some similarly situated players .

Henrys position was well known and articulated to those in and around the athletic department  , if he was a clear first round pick he was  entering the draft.   He never once dropped into the second round like the other Stretch 4 guys did . So it was pretty clear he was gowne.

Henry got what he wanted and MU got some benefit as well.

Like I said , if he stayed we are on track for Very good things . My early bad analysis was that I thought  Henry would get caught up in that Hoopla and stick around . Wishful thinking for sure . When he started racking up double doubles night after night it was pretty much a closed case .

DJ not starting has potential for big problems. Kid obviously has major elite capabilities and should not be on the line behind McEwen.

Kid already quit one team over playing time issues. Mental Health is code word for I am not a starter.

Not saying there is a problem with this now.  But at some point we are looking at another Kobe King situation. Or DJ taking his free year and going to a coach with more common sense .
your conjecture is bs
Moron? Maybe. Dork? Possibly. Lost? Definitely.

Your posting history that March and early April suggests otherwise, but whatevs you need to feel better about yourself after dying of "the 'rona" (as another DJ just called it).

I’m sure it came as a complete surprise to him. It’s not like he and Wojo could have possibly talked about it before yesterday, am I right? SMH.
