[QUOTE="dtm1997, post: 755421, member: 572"] I've seen this mixed in to a few threads and thought it might make sense for a single spot to discuss it. Jose - Quite a few people seem to be talking about him coming back next year, but if you look at his situation, it makes no sense. I'm sure he'll have a great year, but he kind of is what he is at this point in terms of college development potential, as he targets a pro career. When you combine that with the fact he has a baby daughter, is probably pretty close to getting his degree, and is maybe a little older for his class, the rational choice seems to be that he should get his pro career started and make some money, either domestically or internationally. There's not much reason for him to come back. Bubba - Kind of the same story as Jose with more limited pro prospects. Maybe makes a little more sense for him to come back and finish his degree, but even then, he's likely a glue guy deep on the bench, while younger guards begin to get their opportunity. Maybe 4th in the rotation at best and that probably takes Devoe leaving for the pros. Moses - Kind of a boom or bust situation. He has the highest ceiling as an NBA prospect, so he probably needs to produce at a high rate and then have the pro scouts give him good feedback. Otherwise, it might make sense for him to take another year and show a consistent ability to produce. I think he's likely to produce well enough this year to move on, but maybe he benefits from another year. Jordan - I think he's the most likely and best served to come back another year, especially since he lost 2 semester of playing time as a mid-year transfer. He has the physical talent to be a 3&D player in the NBA, but needs to show a refined game, improved skills, and produce at a higher rate. On top of that, he'd likely finish his degree in that time span. Not saying it highly probable, but I do think Jordan, of all of our seniors, would the best served by another year. Net net - I'm really starting this thread to rain on the parade of people wishing & hoping for another year of Jose. I love the kid and I love seeing him in a GT uniform, but if we start getting too hopeful about him coming back for another year, when it doesn't make much sense, we'll just end up having pages & pages of unwarranted complaints in the Spring.
