    I agree that NWG isn't anywhere near ready. Without him though, Romar's changes of getting fired are a lot better. 17-14 might not get Romar fired. 10-20 will. UW might be the worst team in the Pac 12 without NWG, who will be a top 10 player next year.

    Top 10 in the conference, right?
    Yes.

    More evidence of what an outstanding job Percy Allen does with the ST men's BB blog, we're now about 20 hours since this news came out on Twitter. Not a peep from Percy. Keeping up the great work as always.

    Even Adam Jude thinks he is lazy.

    Be a big mistake for him to go. He showed promise but still has a long ways to go.

    I actually disagree. He was one of the best freshmen in the country. There are no more than 10 guys ready for the NBA. Scouts know what he can do from playing on the U-19 team. He played well for them too. He's as good as Ennis from Syracuse, but he played for shitty UW. Abandon the sinking ship and get paid. NWG can scratch out a career in the NBA.

    This. NWG is a stud. Clearly not NBA-ready yet, but doesn't stop tons of guys from jumping early.

    Look at the shitshow that will surround him next year. In his shoes, I think I'd rather spend a couple years in the D-League than continue circling Romar's drain.

    Sitting on the bench in the NBA will develop your game more than being a star that carries your team to the Final Four. Always.

    I'll admit I thought it was strange that no one was talking about NWG entering the draft. He was in contention for pac-12 freshmen of the year.

    I think he stays tho. Unless, and big caveat, he really thinks the team is a dumpster fire. If he leaves that is... Scary.
