[SirScarlet]

His only value to the program was getting Russ on the board

Yikes. I wish things had turned out differently for Jonathan at Rutgers. Between team injuries, having to play out of position and a coaching change it just didn't go his way. He's a terrific young man, I wish him well at Okie State.

Also hope he does well. Wish he stayed he would have played at the RAC this year.

I wish nothing but the best to Jonathan. Three years ago, he literally showed up at my front door...

 

[SJScarlet]

Yeah I was disappointed it didn’t work out for him under Pike. Happy we have RHJ now though playing the wing for us.

I'm guessing that transfer year helped a lot with his development.

Uncalled for

I agree with the prior poster that this comment was totally uncalled for. As a freshman he averaged over eight points and five rebounds in 24 minutes a game. He was second on the team in rebounding and second on the team in field-goal percentage. He also shot 73% on free throws. He guarded bigger players on a consistent basis and did a credible job. The next year he gave way to Freeman. The value of this play to the team certainly exceeded the value of your comments to this discussion.

I noticed his playing time all over the place this past season

I literally dont see an "uncalled for" comment in the thread. Everyone seems to have been nice, unless I missed something deleted. Even if everyone liked the kid, I imagine theres a reason it didnt work out under Pike.

Edit: nevermind. It was a comment from someone I had on ignore

Well then you're missing some of the best takes on the board
