I agree it would seem he cold've used the extra time but at the same time the job is his if he can improve. Why leave? Seems to me he made this decision long ago thinking he was better than he actually is but that's just me. I mean what kid in his right mind would sit out a year when the opening is there, where you are? Makes no sense. I would loved to see what he had, but his defense really was so atrocious he was tough to put on the court.
Hind sight, but man kids need it to wrapped up now and handed to them. Screw them if they don't want to earn their PT.
The team was such a huge problem this year. With Enoch out there, we had 6 foot guards drive the lane straight for layups. With Brimah in there, that didn't happen. What did happen is that the ball would get tossed into Brimah and he'd either take a horrific shot or else turn it over. Both of these guys were disasters on opposite ends of the floor.
The only way to mitigate this? Play Brimah and never ever ever throw the ball into him on the blocks. He had so few offensive rebounds--you might as well just have him at the top of the key setting picks. But even that was fraught with danger as he frequently was called for moving picks.
How do you hide the lack of ability of the frontcourt?
