Really nice kid from what I understand, and has had a ton of surgeries. To burn a roster spot is a risk because he is sort of the Steven Matz of college basketball players. At some point he is going to be injured again.
Better to leave that roster spot empty? It's not burning it if it is obvious, which it is, that there won't be 13 scholarship players on the bench next year?
Sorry for the late response but I agree with you.
Looks like his ship will go to a walk on which is really burning the spot.
Also ironic since he came here because of Matt.
Perhaps Matt sniffing the LSU job gave him a moment to pause even with Freudenberg and Ellison leaving and Bashir "testing" the NBA waters and Lovett contemplating leaving, etc.
Perhaps Matt should actually re-recruit him a second time.
