Haarms - pretty much expected he will be moving on. Pro for returning: seeing his leap over the last few weeks would create excitement in the draft if he had another year under this coaching staff.
Brandon Averette - plans are really unknown at this time. Pro for returning: being in the system one more season would allow him to showcase his talent for overseas
Alex Barcello - plans like BA are unknown. Pro to return: AB’s career goal is to become a coach. What better way but to remain in the program where the HC is using you as a coach in practice and during games. He could continue to learn while playing. Player/coach...
Just random thoughts on the three seniors. Selfishly, I want them all back. But for their futures, IMO they would benefit by returning... as they are not locks for the NBA. All three could play overseas, but with an additional year... Haarms could make a run at the NBA, with overseas always in his pocket. ABBA would also strengthen their resumes for overseas, as well.
Hoping for announcements while attending tomorrow night’s game... please!!!!
Go Cougars and Haarms, ABBA
