After this, I really don't want to drag this topic on any longer, but I found these two articles to be an interesting and insightful read on Josh and his reasons for transferring. Part of me reads this and goes mad , because if Pitt did in fact convince him when recruiting him out of high school that they wanted to run, they deserve what they get regarding blows to perception. Part of me also wants to laugh , because he really seemed to be playing terribly. Even if it wasn't his "style", he was making boneheaded plays. Awful handle. It was such a tough thing to watch because he had us all excited after 2013. I just hope no future recruits read those articles. It will be interesting to see how he progresses at Indiana in two years...I just hope that Jamie maybe learns something from this. It is never good to see players' fathers upset about programs. For some reason, I never hear style of play , in a negative connotation, about anyone else other than pitt..anyone care to share thoughts
