I don’t think Young could have helped them this year like their coach thinks he would have.  Blake may end up being a good player, but he is still a year away from the experience and composure that will allow him to become that complete player.  But it may happen yet.  Cinci had a JUCO transfer named Tony Bobbitt that came in with stellar credentials, but played very average until well into his senior year.  He finally ended up being a solid player, though...

There are many variables.  Young may have put up very different numbers on that team.  Besides, he could help them by merely coming off the bench.  We're better off with him coming off the bench than we would be without him.
