How can you get excited for CV highlight's and not AD? CV has fizzled into a fuzzy dream with his play in the NBA. He's also nowhere near as exciting a player. It's not Drummond's fault that he was on an underachieving team, and if Drummond turns out to be good, it will bode well for future big man recruits.
I understand that he had one year where he did not live up to our expectations on a team that did not live up to expectations. However, he left for the right reasons, and will still show loyalty to the program.
I'm not close to the program, so I base my opinions about a lot of the guys from what I watch on tv and sometimes at the games. I don't know who is more likeable as a person.
Drummond seems like a great guy and I will always root for him, but I got to watch Charlie for two years. I also thought it was great watching him develop. When he first committed to uconn, he was pegged to start since he was a top5 recruit nationally. Boone was a better fit (and better player) that year and Charlie was just a good bench player. By the end of his sophmore year, he was playing like a 3rd team AA.
So, I think it's just a matter of time spent watching the player grow and Charlie fit that much better for me than AD.
CV highlights are coming! I can feel it!
