This paragraph -
"Some of the names on the growing list — which also includes Kal Bay,
James Inge, Sean Kowal Caleb Patterson, Xavier Silas, Marc Van
Burck, Jeremy Williams and Kyle Wright — had a sense of entitlement
about playing time and thought they could just focus on hoops
without worrying about homework."
Bzdelik held two workouts and then told a bunch of players he would
not renew their scholarships - this is after he said that he would not
run anyone off. Two fricking workouts - he did not get to know any of
those players nor did he try to mentor them and help them mature. Now
he throws them under the bus indicating it was a bad attitude thing.
Inge, Kowal, Silas were all in good academic standing when they left
(some of the others may of been also but I don't know) and I know that
neither Inge nor Kowal were divas.
I have little respect for Bzdelik based on how he handled the players
after he got here. It is kind of funny how Bohn is standing on
principle denying Josh Smith an open transfer but his principles were
not so strong after he met with the BB freshmen twice to tell them to
hang in there while he was searching for a new coach then turned his
back on them when the new coach decided to run them off.
