Look, Ray could have played Daniels this year and won 6-8 SEC games

"Why" didn't Ray play him so that ...

1) He could find out 'if' Daniels is able to be a 'Ray team' player 'cause we already know he was not willing to do what it took to pass ONE single math class when it was needed. Instead, Daniels is still an unknown.
2) Ray, instead of regressing in year two, would have showed some improvement and at least had some momentum headed into recruiting and year three.
3) Now, without 'significant' improvement, we have a 'lame duck' that won't get a year four.

Because playing him for half of this season would leave us with a guy who runs out of eligibility halfway through the 2015-2016 season - playing him this season would have been short-sighted enough fro me to want to go ahead and fire Ray on the theory that he can't see the forest for the trees. Anyone who suggests that Daniels should have played this year isn't thinking it through clearly.
