What the @#$@#% is Dion Waiters thinking??

Question

Entering the draft??  Why not play one more yr and improve draft stock??  Right now he is prob late first, second round pick!   This kid obviously doesnt want to be in college, I understand this, but entering the draft??   Cuse should be great next yr and he would improve his stock a bit by playing one more yr....IDK, I think he is an idiot....Jim needs to step up and change his mind (as if he hasnt tried, rite??)......What do you all think?

Some kids just don&#x27;t like college. You also have to think about possible penalties or sanctions coming. Maybe that is part of his decision.

He probably realized that Jimmy B. can&#x27;t coach and staying another year would have equaled to getting knocked out in the first round.

Cant coach??  Haters are awesome!   Guy has about 900 wins or so..took a team this yr..I didnt think was talented as a whole, but played well together and got what, 34 wins......I mean Cuse was great, they are my team...but I still think they over achieved...

ryan4097 · Answer

The guy gets the best out of his players! period..!...thats coaching!

VLR · Answer

He should stay for that free education

E-Muffin · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;I&#x27;ve seen him post in other threads and most of the time he posts nonsense to get a rise out of people. Ignore him. Obviously he can coach. His program could be in trouble however.

Jimmy B is overrated!!!  He doesn&#x27;t leave the state of NY for the first 20 games almost every year getting BS wins against garbage teams.  Plus soon enough all the dirt will come out and we will all see how dirty the program is.  Fab Melo is just the tip, sit back and watch the program crumble.  Overacheived???  You are out of your mind everyone expected them to be the class of the also overrated big east.  Syracuse should have lost to UNC Asheville in the first round but Jimmy filled the pockets of the officials at the half.

Coach K now that is a Coach.  Year in and year out plays a very tough non-confrence and all he does in win.

LockBurger · Answer

Jim B always has great teams and players, but seems to always lose the big game.

Maybe he&#x27;s not smart enough for school.....or maybe he&#x27;s ready to make NBA money and support his family.

666LES · Answer

When JimB yelled at him last year he was ready to jump but had no press.As soon as he had a couple ESPN top ten highlights this year he was gone..

When the whole drug abuse, failed drug test thing comes out, you'll probably see that he's got issues that are related to that. Just guessing, but before the shit hits the fan, he's better taking whatever draft value he has, then trying to wait and be perceived a drug risk in the NBA. We all know none of the NBA players do drugs.

Nipsey · Answer

It was obvious he was leaving months ago. No surprise to Cuse fans. He'll go in the middle of the first round. Tough to pass on that money when it's there. Cuse will still be great next year.

pbnews · Answer

The risk of injury, sanctions, or some other circumstance is too high to pass on the dough. With NBA money, this guy will be able to afford to go back to college if he doesn't make it as a pro.

Even guys like Matt Barkley aren't really going back to improve their draft stock (the extra year is just as likely to hurt your draft position as help). Those dudes have rich families and are having fun in college, so there's no urgency to jump early.

jwarner1313 · Answer

Maybe he was going to be suspended for some bullshit like Fab Melo

bingbearcats · Answer

waiters to the NBA? damn.. next years draft is going to be deep.. wow..

and yes, this is a bad move by waiters but you can't blame them from wanting to get millions nxt year rather than staying in college.

earthWake · Answer

Its only going to be deep because players know this draft class is weak so they will come out and get drafted higher.

diondimucci · Answer

not to mention the blunts and all that roadie box in 28 different NBA cities

DAnewguy · Answer

if he doesnt feel like getting a formal education  (that he has no use for), he has no reason to stay...too many bad things could happen if he stays.......

DAnewguy · Answer

you use college to get yourself in a position to have a career.....hes dont that to the extent of millions of dollars by the age of 20....ask robbie hummmel if he should have stayed....you can always get your degree later..

ryan4097 · Answer

Thanks for some input guys....&#xD;&#xA;I was just thinking of another Cuse player that left early....U all remember Johnny Flynn???    Man if he wouldve stayed another yr or 2 guy be better off....He doesnt get but what 2min, maybe a game...he will prob be playing in Europe in the next couple of yrs....Too bad for such a talented player...I just think he wasnt ready for the NBA..Same feeling for Dion
