[QUOTE="MrOizo, post: 1263706, member: 66798"] Well said. I agree, I've liked what I've seen from limited time. And as a note, practicing hard is a factor but needs to be taken as a factor, not THE rule. There are some notorious players that were so-so in practice but good in games. I know I know, and yes I always love a hard working player who brings it all the time. But at some point, the "carrot and stick" needs to be acknowledged as not working at times. DJW is what he is and I doubt he has changed. He was recruited, it's up to our coaches to get the most out of him by whatever means are most effective. Maybe he's a unique case but I doubt it.
