It is OKAY to be bummed that you won’t see Bones play at The Stu. It is OKAY to feel as if Bones didn’t get to really max out his time here because our 2021 season ended in a heartbreaking manner where we were not on the floor. It is OKAY to hope that Bones has received the right advice from the coaching staff, his family, and professional scouts.
The two things that drive me nuts:
1. Fans (mainly on Facebook) acting like he needs to get his degree now. Even if he is in the G-league next year he will be making similar salaries to what college graduates make in entry level positions. Not to mention, MR is a LOVING coach who has an open door policy with former players (even if he didn’t coach them). Going back to school won’t be an issue.
2. Fans thinking that “______ player” is not ready for the pros. Last time I checked, you aren’t an NBA scout, so your opinion is USELESS.
I’m looking forward to Bones’ journey. His 3-point stroke is attractive in the current landscape of the NBA and he’s clearly a hard-worker. VCU fans now that he’s a hard worker so I hope there is a team (or teams) that want him.
