What would make you show Shaka the door in March?

And the second that conversation starts, as soon as Shaka says those words, he has undermined his credibility with the player, the rest of the roster, and future recruits. These people aren't stupid. They know that "amazing opportunities for you elsewhere" is just touchy-feely talk for "we're running your ass off for someone better" and that's effectively what Shaka has said for years now he isn't going to do.

He's painted himself into a corner on this. If he's going to relocate current players in order to win games, he's undermining the integrity with which he built the program. He can't have his cake and eat it too.

While this could be true it's not the only outcome. I can't imagine Tre, as a senior. Wants to only play a couple min a game. Shakas said he won't purposely recruit over his guys but if one isn't panning out with development and he's frank about it then he isn't going back on his word.
