"Myers" Meyers Leonard was a small school stud with insane athleticism that was always more potential than production. Kofi is a different animal. He is closer to Jahlil Okafor than Meyers. I am not saying he is going to average 17 and 8 but he is not coming to come off the bench. It is much more likely that GB progresses his game and plays along side Kofi than Kofi backs up GB.
I think you are right and agree the most likely scenario is having GB and Kofi play together as much a possible. The ideal situation would be for Kofi to dominate his first year, but have one minor area that's needs work so he's not gone after one year. Ayo and Giorgi (and Trent last year) have helped turn my thinking around on freshmen. In the past it was too often a case of looking at our opponents have top preforming freshman and thinking 'Why can't our frosh play like that". Sometimes, perhaps, we had coaches that just didn't like to play freshman.
