Is it not family issues?

I sure hope that’s what it is and nothing more.

If it is truly family issue then I hope nothing but the best for the kid.

But those upset are the ones who had ridiculous expectations for the guy. He was a non-factor for two years at Washington. He wasn’t a good rebounder when he played. He wasn’t a scorer. Wade’s not one to sit impact players. So if he was great he wouldn’t have been buried on the bench. Just because you are 7 feet doesn’t mean you are a good basketball player.

He was a scramble flier backup plan once the Cisse recruitment fell through. They wanted to see if they could get something out of him. Two months in it is clear they don’t think they can.

Exactly amd thats why he is probably going back home.

Might be family stuff too but it makes the decision easier to leave when it's not working out.

Madking thinks he is the lsu basketball savior. At least bigby-williams balled out at Oregon before he came

Don’t you ever, ever ever, ever ever ever compare bpj to kbw again. Completely different players. Bigby Williams was way more athletic. Higher motor. More skilled. Simply just a better player. Penn Johnson has size but not much else. Slow and stationary. Could help in some aspects but no where near a KBW type player.

And you’d have never known how good KBW was unless Wade was practically forced to play him which was the point.

Nope, he wasn’t the starter until right before conference began vs St. Mary’s.

At what point in a regular season that we lost 5 total games was the season “about lost”?

You basically compared his situation to bigby-Williams

Then you said the other team didn't get an offensive rebound while he was in, as if he is some sort of savior.

The guy just isn't that good
You don't think they see him in practice and see how slow he is

Wade took a chance to fill a hole and it didn't work out

Nothing like bigby-williams

I honestly don't know who that is. Is he a wide receiver, a baseball pitcher, a point guard, a forward in soccer ?

Wish the kid the best and hope things work out for him.

Not concerned about his absence.

Did he really leave team and quit to go home or did he have excused absence to return home? The reason I’m asking is I haven’t seen any news on him leaving and he is still showing on the roster.
