My point is that the players that ALWAYS carried Stansbury teams were the workhorses. The workhorses were the guys that felt like they had something to prove. He quit getting those at the end. Period -- end of story. It was completely over when he ran Phil Turner off.
So now you are saying that Jarvis, Dee, and Arnett were not elite players coming out of high school and our coaches developed 2 of them into NBA players? And Dee Bost is SO much better than any of our point guards that are on our team now - he must have developed. You cannot have it both ways - either they were good when they got here or developed. But, the initial debate was that we haven't had good players in many years - 2 of the 3 above play in the NBA. And, I mentioned Ravern and Barry because they could shoot - which nobody on our team can now.

All you try to do is win arguments and most of your debate is full of it. The bottom line in this argument is - we had good players in the past few years. See how long you have to wait to see another Jarvis or Arnett or even Bost. (Bost's replacement will playing against us on LSU's team.) Don't hold your breath waiting - never mind, please hold your breath so we don't have to read your posts anymore.
