He was also a 5 star. Askew received a scholarship to Texas for no other reason other than his HS ranking. In the same instance...Dontaie was finding it difficult to get a landing spot established at a local G5 university.
Oh. So we’re not going to explain how Askew earned his minutes, but simultaneously talk about how others haven’t earned the right to be on the floor. Sounds groovy.
You proved my point. Those that argue against Askew's minutes always come back the same way and don't give any real results on who should have played instead.
So how did he earn all those minutes again? Not seeing it in this statement. What did he do on the court while he was a Kentucky Wildcat to earn his minutes?
Nothing is ever accomplished in any thread. Message boards are just for fun and amusement.
Askew really hasn't earned anything up to this point. He didn't earn his minutes at Kentucky....he didn't earn his opportunity at Texas....he hasn't earned his minutes at Texas. Thats life though. Some people have to fight for everything and some people are handed everything. Allen is going to have to earn every opportunity. Thats just the situation. No point in being upset about it.
Some twisted logic you’ve got going. I asked the question first. And it’s so very simple: What did Askew do on the court to earn huge minutes?
Again...he doesn't have to earn anything. He hasn't earned minutes at Texas either. Who cares? He isn't on the team anymore for a reason.
Mintz deserved most of them.
Finally an answer! And an honest one at that. One player did not earn his minutes, nor was he required to. Other players must.
You need to change you name to lowINTELLIGENCEcat so I will know to ignore your stupid takes.
For most of the season Mintz was playing 33 MPG once his playing time ticked up. There really wasn't minutes to dish out to him. That was the issue with last years roster.
Again, you have not given anything of substance to say who else should have received Askew's minutes and replace his responsibilities of bringing the ball up the court and initiating the offense? Allen can't do that as we all see now based on his play this year why that argument doesn't hold any water.
Who cares? The people who are constantly reminded that this player or that player hasn’t earned their minutes. It’s a hypocritical statement, for the reasons you yourself have pointed out.
You’re still not addressing how this dude earned his minutes. Another dude did, and his honesty is appreciated.
You morons can bash Cal on some things but recruiting isn’t one of them. Stupid take but not surprising.
So Cal gave Askew all those minutes and he bolted anyway.
Askew, Boston and Kahlil Whitney. Keeping Barbee and Justus on staff.......It seems to be fixed now with O and Lucas and Chin tho.
I kind of feel like I said that already but I think we all know Askew didn't have to earn those minutes. I knew he was going to struggle last year and I told everyone to calm down with the preseason hype. If you watched his games online you could tell he wouldn't be ready. I kept hearing Quickley comparisons but I just didn't see it.
So I guess 5 star Quade Green had a higher ceiling than 4 star Shai Alexander did?
Opting out is becoming more and more prevalent. It wouldn’t be shocking to see opt outs for entire seasons. I believe J’Marr Chase did this sort of thing at LSU.
I believe calling you “son” is his way of flexing his Internet muscles and letting you know he is superior to you.
you just told someone to kill themselves. get some help please.
