Bc if by freak accident he tears his ACL/Knee up or achilles his draft stock absolutely plummets like a rock and thats millions of guaranteed money to 0 guaranteed money. Everyone calls him a quitter which he is but forgets half the NBA is tanking at any given moment they mostly don't care.
Hopefully the kid doesn't care what Jay says. If the kid experiences a career ending injury while finishing out the remainder of their worthless season, Jay isn't going to put money in his pockets.
Yeah, but you can’t let a possible but very unlikely injury decide that for you. If so, why would any of the players figured to be drafted in the top 10 even play at all? I think it’s a very bad decision, but since it hurts Dook I don’t really care.
I'm sure you have inside knowledge he's faking.. You're Stupid and so are your posts
I'm waiting to see if K pulls a Cal and makes us some bullcrap like "we support Jalen totally and it's HIS future we care about"...... And he basically did pull a Cal and pacify this nonsense....this is insane to me.
It is easy for you to voice an opinion that isn't about your potential loss of millions.
Even Cal was calling him out before he backtracked when he found out he was quitting. Get your head out of the sand. And if you don’t like my posts don’t read them or put me on ignore. You have 400 posts in 12 years. That makes you a troll.
He opted out for the same reason why football players opted out this season, college and professional.
I can't imagine not playing if I were healthy. If you're a competitor it would never cross your mind.
I agree!!! I've said in other posts that if they do quit, then they need to pay back the equivalent of the amount of their scholarship, room and board, and any other benefits...plus no more use of the facilities for training, etc. They were given those things because they agreed to play college basketball. You know, kinda like a contract!
From the backlash that Johnson, Coach Ratface, and Duke are getting, along with a lot of negative publicity to go with it, I understand why Cal throws up so many smokescreens and pretty much covers up for all the OAD players whether it is a real injury, feelings hurt, opting out, agents/handlers decision to shut a player down, etc.
Wouldn't make a bit of difference. Shoe companies, agents, or boosters would just pick up the cost for them, and they will go on their merry way.
There is no excuse for this. We have raised and fostered the most pitiful generation in history. Totally entitled and all about themselves. One and done must end. Go pro or go to college for 3 years and stop this foolishness.
Harry Giles people should still be kicking K's ass for the amount of money he cost that kid being selfish.
Would have been more minutes if he could have got rid of his ego and went back in the game when multiple assistants were trying to go back in.
With all due respect to you and i mean no disrespect towards you on this but i absolutely cannot stand or get behind the " what if he gets injured" argument.
Guys like Zion, Cole Anthony, Keion Brooks, all actually got injured but returned because they weren't quitters. Not even being injured in the first place and quitting just because the team isn't very good is not going to get you very far. I hate UNC, but I respect the hell out of Cole Anthony, who had a real injury, but returned even though he was already a high pick and his team was trash
