In response to SomeGuy
Yeah, but Betley hadn't been sitting out for a year at that point (including most of senior year HS). Jelani has to have a tougher road to recovery. I'm hoping for the best too. He really looked like an impact player on his HS videos. Hoping he's been able to refine his shooting. I'd trade a smidge of explosiveness for shooting in a Donahue offense. He still has size.
Tough call on Jelani. He still appeared to have a limp last game I was at, the team has a pretty good mix right now, and we only have a one man recruiting class next year. If a 5th year isn't a huge issue, I would think coming back strong next year with 4 full years of eligibility could be a good thing.
Of course, it would also be nice to have a big point guard who could be a starter from day one. At this same point last year, we hadn't seen Betley yet, and he turned out to be our leading scorer in the Ivy season.
