I have no knowledge, but I wonder if his struggles came from after his injury. Give him time to recover and an offseason to become a little quicker, I think he could be passable. Streaky - yes, head case - yes, unnecessary trash talk that somehow gives the other team energy - yes. All of that are areas he needs to improve.

And it wasn't just because of increased competition, thats a factor but dude was wondering if he would be out rest of the season, right?

As always, I trust Pope and he'll make the right decision there too. I want guys to stay all through their eligibility and even if Knell finished with 15 minutes a game I think I'd be okay with that unless there is a massively clear upgrade.
