You said, "He traded minutes and heavy criticism from a team that didn't make the NIT...", I've never read anything mentioned by anyone that indicated he was catching flack from his own team. Was that made up or can you substantiate that?

Seems he just wanted a change of scenery. Ultimately he's just a bust (for BYU and Baylor)

He is a 3 and D player who hasn't been able to hit the 3. It's not enough

Bring him back to BYU to play football! He might excel at that sport.

If anything, he could do some modeling for the Art department.

I'm pretty sure he's talking about fan criticism

Zip
