Will redshirting become extinct?

Jeremy Lamb was pretty bad his first stretch as a freshman too.

As a Freshman in 2010-11: Appeared in all 41 games, starting 40... Named to the BIG EAST All-Rookie Team... Averaged 11.1 points and 4.5 rebounds in 27.8 minutes per game... Recorded 10.8 points and 4.3 rebounds in BIG EAST play... Named to the BIG EAST All-Tournament Team... Named to the NCAA West Region All-Tournament Team... Named to the NCAA Final Four All-Tournament Team... Averaged 16.2 points and 4.8 rebounds while shooting 58-percent from the field in the NCAA Tournament...

There's another contender for that title in this thread....

He is definitely challenging for the title.

Ed Cooley had no problem taking a chance on a guy that didn't play at all so that theory goes right out the window

Are some of you that dense to not think about context in these situations? Have to be purposefully dense.

Jay Wright passed on Diggins

Jay Wright offered him and others, and then filled the slot before Diggins made up his mind. That's a real stretch of the word "passed."

For quite a few of their draft picks, that was the philosophy of the New York Giants in the draft a few days ago.

Jay Wright had it down to a science.

Time will tell if it works out for the Giants.

That doesn't actually disagree with what I said. "Prioritized" does not mean that they didn't give Diggins an offer, which they are reported to have done, and wouldn't have taken him if he gave a verbal while they were still courting Brizzi.

The point being, you can't take too fine a comb to a process of which we have relatively little actual knowledge.

Even that tweet says Nova offered Diggins.
