Sima Transferring

I don't wish any ill will on the kid, but don't you guys think that if he watched tape of the games he played this season he'd recognize how lost he was? There were times where he was playing defense and he wasn't even aware of where the play was taking place. It often looked like he was dogging it, but in fairness, he wasn't alone.

He was a 7-foot soph. What did you expect? He would haven been a very solid guy for us the next 2 1/2 years. You need guys like Sima to keep then ball rolling like Xavier.

How does anyone here know that Sima wasn't working hard?   Stop bashing players on the way out the door!

We don't know why he left or how hard he was working.  He did nothing while he was here to warrant this - was never suspended or rumored to be a problem, always respectful etc.

Sima was a bad fit here. When he was here Williams had 0 role. I think Williams is just as good. Williams is also one year closer to graduation. Which Is better in the long run.

I can't figure Williams out. Have to figure he's not too good based on Mullins reluctance to play him. I like Owens better than Sima, but Sima provided depth. Based on our roster, if all our guards are healthy I like Bash at the 4.

Williams is awful. His conditioning is noticeably subpar. I feel for
the kid, but he's simply not a Big East player after his 3-4 shoulder surgeries. Sima's absence will be felt on conference play when every team we face will have at least one 6'10 240 + player goes nig up against Yakwe and Owens.

The silver lining in losing Sima is pushing Ahmed to the four, Yakwe to the five, and letting RF get some more burn.
