The one good coach that offered him a scholly after two surgeries and believed in him?It wasn't nearly all him. A good coach makes it work here.

Some fault?
Three potential starters left. Two have already ended up in better situations.
I'd say there were some problems.
Of course there is some fault, there's no doubt. But the kid sucked, he did nothing with his minutes so who is most of it on? What coach believed in him through the down times ? I mean let's single out the one guy in this thread rather than take the 3 of them, he owed KO and UConn something no matter what the issues were. Kids need to earn some stuff too, this is crazy.
Seemed like a really good kid, probably is but not tough enough to hang in there and step it up for the one guy who believed in him. Hard to root for him at ND that's for sure.

We've now lost one to Louisville and one to ND. I don't want to hear about the recruiting. Development is more the issue.
I said good bc the comment I was quoting used "good"For the umpteenth time, we were not the only good offer JD had. Not by a long shot. We weren't even his best offer.

Right? lol people seem to forget that. Regardless of the battles we've had against them and the nearly Duke-Esque succession of annoying players I blame a lot of our CR woes on them. They should have stayed in the Big East and maybe the ACC adds us and Cincy to be the first league to 16. Or the should have joined the ACC full time and maybe we're 16. Them being in the ACC makes very little sense to me as the Big East has added even more Midwest catholic schools in Creighton and Xavier.It's hard to root for ND period.
