[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 699779, member: 2299"] I'm not all that surprised. Earlier this year when Banks went into his funk, and at times when Banks would go out we got a preview of what next year would look like. IMO while Cole had his moments, we were usually better off going small ball with USher at the 4. The problem I saw was that I don't think a combination of Wright and Cole is all that effective. Cole doesn't really stretch the court like we were hoping, and there is a lot of overlap on offense in their skills except Moses is just more consistent and developed. Defensively, he didn't really provide us with a rim protector like Banks. I think Cole would make a good back up to Moses, but I'm not really convinced he's the answer to Banks leaving, and I think he probably reached the same conclusion. I know I differ from many here, but I think Saba would start for us next year, if not right away, a short time into the season. I think us going after Sotto also goes to the idea that we would prefer a true center type vs going with two forwards. I think this hurts because while if we go that route I don't think Meka taking Cole's minutes is all that big of a drop in all likelihood, it leaves us with no real option in the case of foul trouble, which with 2 freshmen is a bigger deal. That being said, I could also see this being a test the waters type of deal, and don't think the door is closed on him playing for us next year. [/QUOTE]
