I doubt that was a reference to curbelo. Was probably more of a reference to the college landscape in general. Chester tweets about games all the time, I don't think he does much subliminal messaging.

Yes I think Belo is a once in a generation type player.

I'm sad to see him transfer. Obviously, this was not a good season for Belo.
However, according to fi.com, he played 367 minutes, and logged 53 turnovers, averaging 2.8 to's per game or .144 turnovers per minute played. For the sake of comparison, Trent played 1067 minutes and committed 55 to's. He averaged 1.78 to's per game or .051 turnovers per minute. Plummer played 994 minutes with 43 to's. Averaged 1.3 per game or .043 turnovers per game.
When one looks at 3 pt. shooting percentages, Frazier shot .328, Plummer .408 and Curbelo shot .176.
I'd love to have seen him decide to stay and work on these percentages, but given these stats maybe it's better he moves on.

Pretty bummed about this. Was rooting for him to succeed this year and looking forward to him reaching his potential next year. Just hope we can field a great team without him. Big shoes to fill.
Yes if the others on the offense moved better without the ball and could finish at the rim Curbelos full potential could have been realized. We had no slashers with length and that ability.
Chester just tweeting. Nothing to do with Belo or any other kid.
I agree, but I couldn't help but think about Belo when I saw it, and now we know the timeline adds up. I obviously don't know Chester, but it would seem out of character/unprofessional to throw shade like that in the heat of the moment. Either way, it seems like an awkward coincidence as I'm sure they're linked up.
Name doesn't check out
If I had to guess, I would say the tweet is in reference to Wendell Moore.
Need a Will Smith gif to go with that
I mean his teammates and staff had kind of had enough of him by the end but probably not the reason he’s transferring
Plus Sixth Man of the Year last year.
Thanks for that. I wondered about that very thing.

I can't see it. Cal can't handle that style of play.
Lol if he thought our fans were badbound
Man, really sad to see Belo. Would have loved to have him graduated an Illini
If that was the case I feel even more sad for him. Apparently he or no one around him realized the extent of his injuries and symptoms. Just think about it, they put him back on the court for a few games before they sat him out again and how many times after he got back out there did we see him get his head hit again. We were all waiting to see if he would go down again. We all have seen concussions end careers. I think this is a teachable moment for coaches and players alike. A lot more caution needs to be exercised with these types of injuries. Whatever people think of Curbelo they need to remember the saying walk ten miles in a man's moccasins before you judge him.
Frazier and Plummer struggled to penetrate and collapse the defense. Without Ayo the team was left with only AC that could do that. Unfortunately this year when AC did that he either couldn’t finish at the rim, made a poor decision or threw a pass that his teammate fumbled. In the Marquette game ( when he likely was concussed) he kept getting his shot blocked at the rim instead of pulling up or dropping it off. In the NCAA tournament he made a few passes that Kofi, Hawkins or Payne mishandled.
Hell of a talent but BU has earned the faith of the fans to replace and continue winning like he did when Mark Smith, Alan Griffin and Adam Miller left.
Oh they were extremely cautious with him. They didn’t do anything until he got cleared by the docs. They weren’t malicious in anything they did and didn’t try and rush him back in any way. Yes the concussion played a part but so did some other factors.
