Stewart has a little bit of that in his game but his injury really hampered him. He was missing all his shots at the end of the seaon on drives. Hopefully he comes back too and is healthy.

Great we have out 3 and D guy whether starting or off the bench. He really was consistent for us down the stretch in his role.

So he wanted to be a pick and pop center at UConn. It was never happening here.

He wasn't brought in for defense. He was brought in to score and did that quite well. Xavier knew they were in a rebuidling year and just wanted to have a decent season for Pitino's first year and needed a scorer which they got.

He was really our Captain Connecticut and will be sorely be missed. Last memories I will have of him are going to be coming back to the hotel with his hoodie wrapped tight over his head and crying and just looking like he just wanted to vanish. I hope he can make the NBA and will be rooting for...

Hmnm. He was second leading scorer in the conference and shot 50% from the field. That is weird take to call that a miss. Mahaney was a miss the year before but Carroll gave Pitino Jr. the scoring his team needed. He wasn't brought in for defense.

No I'm saying if we give 2-3 Million to a proven Center, 2-3 Million to a PF and 4 Million to Braylon we might not have enough money to give Reibe and also make sure others stay. I agree the staff probably saw him as more of a developmental center in their system while he thought he should start...

Yeah, and if Braylon is really going to get the rumored 4 Million and our new guys from the portal getting big money there might just not been enough money to keep Reibe around.

Just because he is that there have been other 5* busts before. By step down I mean still in the power 5 but maybe a USC, Cal, Minnesota or Arizona State so he can get the starting minutes he thinks he deserves.

Yep, and a reason why he couldn't play more minutes especially in some of the big games. He just couldn't keep up more imposing physical centers.

Problem was when we were putting him in games he was either fouling a lot of being scored on by stronger players. He just didn't deserve the minutes as the year went on.

Besides the Arizonia game we didn't really see it much and mostly missed it when he did shoot it after that game.

Yeah, he was probably told that they are looking for a Center who can come in play in the Transfer portal meaning that he would have someone to challenge him for the Center minutes. He doesn't seem to like the challenge of competing an felt he deserved more minutes just based on his skillset...

And Muscle as shown by him not being able to handle stronger players down low on the blocks.

If the rumors we heard are true his family felt like he should of played more minutes this year and didn't like how he was being used.
