Message: [QUOTE="HuskiesAllDay, post: 2162942, member: 3494"] The two prevailing thoughts on Enoch's departure seem to be: 1.) Its a huge loss. He was a top 60-ish kid from CT and showed some/a lot of potential and we would really be counting on him next year. 2.) Its no big deal at all. He averaged 2 and 2 and was a defensive liability and if he couldn't get on the court this year for us, then he simply inst good enough and never will be. Hes not hard to replace and its possible Carlton is better anyways. The answer is somewhere in between obviously. Its undeniable that losing Enoch is a loss. On court wise it could be a minimal loss depending on how he would develop. Steve Enoch, no matter how much he develops is clearly replaceable. But his loss could be a lot worse for us off the court than on it. If he says he's leaving because he didn't think we could develop him then that is not good. And, if he ends up going to a school like Louisville, then that really makes it difficult to argue #2. If hes good enough for HOFer Pitino and Top 10 Louisville, then why the heck weren't we able to get anything at all out of him in 2 years? No matter how you slice it, its mostly bad for us. A semi-big in-state recruit, who did pretty much nothing in 2 years here, who plays a position that is WIDE open next year transferring out. Hats bad. But if he leaves to go to a school like L'ville then its really bad. Really really bad. If he ends up going there and kills it, then its really really really bad. [/QUOTE]
