Playing time. Change of scenery. Familiar competition. All makes sense to me.Hope he crushes it but I don't understand the decision at all.
No he’s graduatingDoes he have to sit out a year?

So awesome for him but man it’s weird.
Gotcha. I thought you were saying it's weird because Wichita is a in a huge transition with over half the team transferring and you would think AG would want a new conference after being stuck in the AAC for 4 years.Well both can be true, no? It’s weird for me as a UConn fan that he’s going there. But to AG the person it makes total sense.
Agreed. Other than playing time availability this makes zero sense.Hope he crushes it but I don't understand the decision at all.
That's an interesting way to look at it, I see holes everywhere. They lost like 36-37 ppg to transfer.While they had a lot of transfers, their starters at the 2-4 are all staying and backup center (starter graduated). *Stevenson and Dennis split time at the wing pretty evenly.
Their main hole now was at PG, and he fills it.

Well, we don't know what was most important to Alterique. Looks like being close to home wasn't that much of a factor. Looks to be guaranteed playing time at a decent level and if that was his priority then he made a good choice. He could have chosen some of the P5 teams that wanted him but we don't know what their level of interest was and even if they were interested he may not have guaranteed playing time like at WSU. I wish him well. Hope he kills it there.Agreed. Other than playing time availability this makes zero sense.
As crazy as this sounds, AG is one of my all-time favorite Huskies. He showed nothing but heart and dedication through the worst of times. I couldn't help but feel some of his pain.
As we're all being reminded, a lot of lousy stuff happens in life that's beyond our control. A good dose of AG resilience would serve us all well.
