Wow. That was quick. I guess you can’t miss what you barely had. I wonder if he will be any good wherever he goes. Should be interesting to see where he lands.

Here’s JJs comments on Shanu when he signed ““John is a young man with tremendous upside," Jones said. "He is just beginning to scratch the surface of his full potential. His size, athleticism and work ethic will allow him to develop quickly and contribute to our team’s success next season.”

Hate to agree with some, but perhaps JJ needs to bite the bullet and start playing some of the talented young kids as freshmen. We will suffer defensively and perhaps offensively early on, but we can't keep loosing our future to the transfer portal because they are rotting on the end of the bench.

This is a battle that every team in America is going through. Also, more minutes for Shanu means less minutes for Kalue and Trice. How do we justify playing Kalu and Trice 30 mins a game to keep Shanu happy? You can't play for the future every year.
