Jaylin Stewart in Portal

[Henry]

Given how broken up Jaylin is with making the decision to transfer, I just can't see him going to a BE team where he'd have to play us at least twice. I don't think he'd want to do that.

I cannot believe people still follow him…..

Here is my legit question about all this. ' Is sophomore Nic Khamenia a better player than the senior UConn veteran Jaylin Stewart, and is it just assumed that Khamenia will be the starting 4?'

Any serious Boneyarders please reply.

raw talent? yes. experience? no.

NK has a higher ceiling than Jaylin....but I hate saying that because man...stew has given so much of his life to this team. husky forever.

I feel like part of the answers is also that JStew would've gotten an opportunity to out perform NK in practice. But J Stew couldn't risk it if the staff decided to NK was the best option.

For his future J Stew, needs to play next season. And the staff couldn't guarantee him the strong role that he needed. Wherever he goes, he'll perform. We've seen him perform at times when he got extended minutes and we've seen flashes of talent since his freshman year.

JS leaves with something that very few who played big time college ball have been afforded - a NC ring
He and his family made a decision based on feedback from the coaching staff
I wish him the best, however, there were many times that I felt he was unsure of his position while out on the floor.
He can be a valuable member of many D1 teams, perhaps one that doesn't place a spotlight of each players every move.

I’ve seen a few people say this, and I’d like to better understand what you mean. He wasn’t a focal point and had to "get his" on his own. He was mostly used as a screener. He wasn't the focus of Hurley play calls and after running elaborate sets for Ball, Mullins, Karaban, and Reed, if nothing developed, he’d maybe end up with the ball late in the shot clock and be forced to create.
