SK

At this point I don't really care if sk leaves after this year. If we struggle next year early on then so be it. I would rather have the team learn to be without him than depend on him. I am tired of him laying a phat egg against quality teams. I don't think he has what it takes to elevate his game against top tier teams. His confidence looks shook and I am tired of watching him play well under his talent. Even if he stays next year, would we see much of an improvement? Even when he scores 15+ a game a lot of times its the most silent 15-18 points and don't make much impact. Part of me thinks we have seen the best out of him, being the second half of last season and the first 10 games of this year.

I blame the offense and the fact that Mick encourages all players to shoot as soon as they get open.

So what do you think about SK and him being around for another year? For it or against it?

Are you being serious or just blowing off steam? SK is the hardest worker on the team and he'll be the veteran leadership next year. That's two things you are going to need with all the young guys coming in.

Dont be ridiculous.

SK is the ideal college basketball player. Hes awesome for the university. And hes a top tier player. This is a absurdly pathetic shot at a great college athlete. One that this team NEEDS next year.

We need his next year. If not, our offensive leader is rubles which is a pretty scary thought. We can only expect so much from our freshman.

36 against Marquette....play under his talent? the kid wasn't recruited by anyone coming out of high school and he is going to the league. he is a victim of Cronin's offense, or lack there of, and also the fact that we have zero big men. sk is going to be 1st team BE so idk why you would just let him walk. that is very very ignorant

I think everyone is just blowing off steam. Sk is a beast and would be a lot better if we had an offense to run. No way we should expect him to beat a top ten team by himself.
