Brandon Lewis, a fourth-year junior who was expected to challenge for playing time this season, has left the team.
FAKE NEWS! -
Positive attrition. Thinning out the weak and sickly from the herd.

Thank God I thought we lost someone we cared about

I think the TNT views "thinned out" differently than HH does.

Losing an experienced upperclass corner is never a good thing. Especially after gardenhire and the draftees. What an ignorant statement.bananasnblondes said:Positive attrition. Thinning out the weak and sickly from the herd.

He literally played like 2 snaps in his career, so how on earth was he experienced? Plus he wasn't playing this year anyways.puppylove_sugarsteel said:

This is what happens when upperclassmen see that they have been passed by RS Freshman who are just fucking better. Nothing to see here. Move along.

In this case majorly disagree. We lost basically our top 4 corners from last year (Jones, King, Gardenhire and Baker) and nobody who doesn't work for the TNT was thinking "Brandon Lewis is poised to step into the void".puppylove_sugarsteel said:

After spring Miller, Murphy, Bryant, and Joyner are far above Lewis. And if catostrophic injury were to strike, it's going to be Kentrell Love and Ejijah Molden and Keith Taylor stepping in. And none of those 7 players graduate this year.
If Lewis wasn't winning playing time this year, he was never winning playing time. *Losing* a player who would never see the field is never a bad thing, even if said player has been around for awhile.
I'm glad for Lewis' sake that he can stay on scholarship and finish his degree. I'm glad for UW's sake he won't count against the 85 anymore.
Win-win.
