Bennett, Colon vs. Wooly's big men.

Sorry if this  has already been brought up but all wooly's best post guys were jucos. 

this is an unfair comparison until bennett and colon are juniors.  they will be much much better.

No, it's not, because you don't get two below-average to mediocre years from quality juco's.

We don't have the 5-8 rule anymore.  It doesn't hurt you much to take impact Juco's over non-impact freshman.

im gonna ask a dumb question..and its only cause i cant remember or didnt care when i heard it...

Didn't he get pistol whipped and started having migraines all the time?

Speaking of brain cramps, did Colon really forget to put on his jersey Sat. night?

It was the night that Bennett started, whenever that was....Colon was supposed to start, but when he got ready to take off his warmup...

Colon and Bennett are 4 year guys.  Massey comes really close, but I'd have a hard time not taking the two extra years and potential for growth than two-years of Massey.

that is 2 years of dead weight with the 4 year players.  2 successive good jucos is far better than a 4 year player that takes 2 years to contribute.

Imagine what Massey could've been with 4 years at D1.  I can't be sure, but I think he would've been better than he was his senior year here.  That is the difference.  You have two possibly unproductive years that pay bigger dividends in the last two.  It is not a sure thing, but it is a feeling I have about Bennett in particular.  Part of Wooly's problems stemmed from his inability to keep anyone here 4 years, so I could be overreacting to that but I think there is something to be said for continuity.

That's a scary thought.

See:  Travis Canby, Quentin Buchanan*

*The two guys he spent the most time with.


Wooly's problem was he couldn't get any GOOD players to stay.  Also, Juco's hurt a ton more when the 5-8 rule existed.


If we're worried about continuity, we shouldn't go after the Beasleys and Walkers of the world.

There goes a Woolite blaming the 5-8 rule again.
