This kid isn’t even going to another college. He is dropping out to focus on his religion, according to his statement. I’m not sure Kermit could’ve stopped this one.
Exactly.Was very disappointed in his progress with all the hype about his potential by ckd. If he was not totally committed to basketball, then it's best he moved on. FWIW, I believe there plenty of examples available of people practicing their faith and doing their chosen vocation well.
I wish he had made this decision months ago when CNM could have made some use of that now open slot on the roster.
Question:
I understand there are defections any time a coaching staff changes. But does anyone feel like we've experienced an alarmingly high number of them with this coaching turnover? It's not like we were a bad program replacing a bad coach. We had a coach leave for a better job and had a lot of good players graduate. Shouldn't those players want to stay here and continue the success? We've been a power program for damn near a decade now.,
The amount of players we've lost with the new staff is baffling to me. Something just doesn't feel right to me.
I agree 12 seems high.
The norm seems to be a range of 7 +/- 2. Once you get into the 10+, it does seem more than usual.
Yeah, because it takes forever to rebuild a basketball team, western totally sucked last year with their new coach and they will suck again this year...Going to be a long, long road to being relevant again.
It's really unusual when you take into account that we are a budding program that's been VERYH successful. This isn't some dumpster rebuilding job. We are one of the top programs in the G5. Our players should not be wanting to leave unless there's some extreme circumstances where they just don't fit into the picture with the new staff.
8 sure seems high. That's over 60% of the entire roster.....
You said those numbers included seniors....so how many have we lost? Let's count'em, help me out here. We've got the 3 signees who all bailed, Giddy Potts, Antwain Johnson, Tyrik Dixon, Walters, Nick King, Shelton Schzmidt, David Simmons, Davion Thomas, Ed Simpson..........HOLY CRAP I didn't realize it was so many.
We're already up to 12....that's basically an entire roster (13 scholarships for a D1 team are allowed) WTF?!?!?!?!?
I'm sorry but that seem's like too much. Especially for a program that is on the rise and has been very successful for almost a decade now. Like I said, something doesn't feel right here.

I have spent a lot of time with Theron over the last 6 months. I would appreciate you guys not disparaging him. You simply don't know what your talking about. If you knew this kid, all of you would love and appreciate him. He is an amazing young man.
I 100% respect his decision to leave for what he believes he is being lead to do. I know some people can serve God (or whatever they believe) and devout a significant amount of time to something like college basketball, but not everyone is the same. I would rather him quit basketball to serve God more fully than the other way around.I have spent a lot of time with Theron over the last 6 months. I would appreciate you guys not disparaging him.

It’s good to hear that, I’m sure he is. Sounds like this was the right choice for him, personally, the timing of which matters little in the scheme of things but is bound to cause some waves. I hope he finds something that makes him happy and gives him peace of mind.I have spent a lot of time with Theron over the last 6 months. I would appreciate you guys not disparaging him.

Heck, McDevitt knows nothing about recruiting and probably hasn't ever had a winning season as a head coach so Massaro should fire him before the season begins
