Does anyone think that he’s considering transferring because Sedee has been playing better than him at practices and he’s afraid of being put on a similar status as what happened to Yakwe?
No. Basically right or wrong he & his father felt he should get more touches in the offense from what I gather.
I can't imagine any high major team that is any good guaranteeing him more touches in the offense than us. Seems like a pretty dumb decision on their part. But this is what happens when all you get are malcontent transfers from other schools, and kids with no connection to the school before they sign. This staff, especially Mullin, have to build relationships with the kids they recruit. When was the last recruit we signed where the staff was on him for years before they signed? Ponds maybe?
He's been with Mullin for 3 years now, not long enough to build up some loyalty to Mullin? So Mo didn't buy him a rattle when he was a baby. Just saying there is more to leaving than not having a long term relationship prior to them coming together.
I'm not just talking about Owens. Basically almost every recruit we get is either a malcontent transfer from somewhere else, or a decommit who we had no relationship with prior to them decommitting. That is not how you build a program. The staff basically either have no relationship with the kid, or they're getting kids who have already transferred once already. That has to be a factor as to why there is so much roster turnover. It doesn't help when one guy does 98% of the recruiting while the others are in Cali soaking up the sun with their families.
There are kids in the 2019 class who they've been on for a while, so I think this will be the crucial year. If we don't land any of these kids, and don't meet expectations next season then Mullin and staff have gotta go.
