[QUOTE="Second and Chalmers, post: 1409539, member: 527609"] What do you want me to say? Loyalty Conventional Wisdom? Does that have a less negative connotation? He was pretty good both years at DePaul, and contributed some in both of his years here, it's not like he was at the end of the bench. Is the statement "6-12 with three NBA players" slightly deceptive? Maybe. But it's a true statement of fact nonetheless. "We were ranked at some point in six consecutive seasons and only made the tournament in two of them" is also a true statement, and one that is not deceptive at all, it gets right to the heart of the matter. Meyers was a freaking monster that year. In my 7 years as a season ticket holder (05-06 to 11-12) the two player-seasons that stand out above the rest as just game-altering forces to watch in person were Dee's senior year and Meyers Leonard.
