Damon Wilson--

I don't even know what to say. I have some insight on midmajors like Georgia St and what kind of athletes succeed there...and it shocks me that a fairly highly recruited player like Damon isn't producing there. He's played in every game and has 0 field goals on the year.
This is not meant as a knock on Jamie. We thought Wilson was a good get at the time. I guess one can question the talent evaluation, but he was a good player from a good HS program that had good recruiting rankings. But we saw with our own eyes that he's not an ACC level point guard and he's not an ACC level SG. Which made me think he would thrive at a mid major like Georgia St.
What this is meant for is to show another example for the guys unfairly busting on KS for running kids out of the program, that KS came in and saw that many of these guys are not ACC players. His first year here wasn't perfect by any stretch, but no one can fault him for the purge.
