I dont understand why we would take back Amar but wouldn't take back Williams when there is no downside.

Unless he really wants to leave because he sees no PT, we should be begging him for one last year.

What makes you think he wants to return to St.John's? IDK, but it seems to me that he left because the staff really didn't think of him as a rotation player until they were desperate. I thought he showed some promise last season, but he maybe Williams thought he showed a lot more of it than the staff did? Williams leaving is odd because of the 3 guys that left, he was the one who had a surprisingly good year.

Very surprising and disappointing as well. He would've filled a huge gap for this team next year in the post.

He averaged about 13 minutes per game.  That's not scant minutes, for a guy that was out a season prior with injury.  Those are very decent minutes for a guy that's like Mr Glass...  he'd be a nice contributor this year again, and have possibly been a a cog on an NCAA SJU team.  I'm not sure where he's gonna go that is going to give him 20-40 minutes per game, so not sure what he's searching for?  Either way, it's his choice.  Be nice to have him back but seems like he's not interested.  Curious to see where he goes.  I'm guessing low-mid major if he's trying to get big minutes.

Must be searching for that graduate degree program that SJU doesn't offer... that's what rule is there for right ?   ;D

Ouch. Never understood why he left. He wasn't Walter Berry, but he had some nice moments.
