    Tells me our new coach prefers your basic long time all nighter. Hell, yes. The "one and doners" have not made UW an insignificant loser, they have made HUSKY BB a spectacular, well-advertised loser. Hop is going to have the boys tighten their chin straps and hit somebody. I wonder if he'll bring back the mid-drift jerseys?

    Haha yeah, two year guys (like Terrance Ross) can work out at UW but one and doners like Hawes, Wroten, and Fultz led to a lot of high visibility wheel spinning in the mud.

    Also kind of funny that Ross's second year was Wroten's one year.

    One and doners aren't the problem. Not developing talent around them has been the problem.

    If Hop doesn't think he'll have the talent around Porter next year to justify the distraction and inability to install his system/culture then I'm all for him not taking him. But Hop only has a natty ring because Carmelo. He'll be all for taking one and dones when the time is right.
    Yep. Syracuse has had a few one and dones. There is no way avoiding them. Some guys you expect to stay 2-3 years will leave after one.

    Well Syracuse had a system in place and very stable coaching (and program support) to manage Melo as a one and doner.

    I'm not against one and doners and but the conditions have to be right.

    Not to sound like captain obvious, but how fucking hard is it to inspire kids to play hard?

    AAU has fucked the game up. It's cool to be nonchalant.

    Ultimately Romar was undone by Murray and Chriss. No one saw them being one and done, and replacing those types in April is tough to do. Those two with Fultz would have been fun to watch. But it didn't and the team sucked.

    Uh, no.

    Romar was undone when those fags were in middle school.
