No official confirmation, but their fans seem to be speculating it's some combination of not enough minutes, poor culture fit, homesickness, and/or a lack of patience due to the influence of outsiders telling him that he should be a one-and-done.

Looking at his stats, he gets to the line and shoots FTs at a high percentage (89%). Pretty solid defender. Overall shooting is...not good. He's 4/23 on the year from 3-pt range (17%).

I know he hasn’t shot well this season, but that’s a small sample size. He’s a really good shooter, this wouldn’t concern me at all.

We will gladly take any and all top 50 recruits from Chicago like Burnett, keep the pipelining flowing. I refuse to believe this kid is anything but a stud. Would be ecstatic to add him.

I wouldn't be too worried with that small of a sample size. For what it's worth, DaMonte was 13/46 (28%) from deep last year and is currently shooting at a 61% clip this year.

Hope the transfer portal treats us well. We really really need some guard depth for next year. As it stands now we literally won’t even have scholarship bodies behind Belo and Miller. Trent and Damonte returning would certainly help, as would a healthy Hutcherson. So much uncertainty :confused:

You guys can take me to the curb. I want to know why by Dion Thomas not one of our coaches and one of our big guy coaches? I don't get it he is an amazing man and if you ever heard him speak he is an oustanding. Why isn't Dion Thomas? A Coach?

Didn't like the recruiting game and time it took away from his family.
