He changed his mind during a season where we gave him plenty of reason to do so. I can understand that. But the way he's gone about this whole process has been bizarre. Between opting not to play college ball this year, red-shirting at Kentucky, and hearing what his high school coach had to say about him, he's painting a bleak picture for anybody who wants to draft him. It's a bit of a paradox, almost. Dodging college ball to preserve your stock sounds good in theory, but then the fact that you would actually go ahead and do it makes me question you as a competitor. I feel the same way about a lot of transfers - it's just hard to look at some of the best players in the NBA and imagine them consciously choosing not to play basketball for a year. [/QUOTE]
