Colvin has great potential and I hope he sticks around. We would not be better off without him. He is a true freshman that can play meaningful minutes and not be a liability on defense. He has a remarkable court sense and just needs the game to slow down a bit and that will only happen with time. (In a year or two he could* be special)
As just someone who sits in the stands and watches, I am 100x more comfortable when Colvin has the ball than Christopherson, Staiger, or Buckley. If he leaves, that could be crippling to our guard play down the road in the instance we lose out on Randle and Staten goes elsewhere. As for Buckley, to me he just doesn't look fluid and in enough control to be a Big 12 guard at this point. (granted he hasn't been given much of a chance, but when he has been in I haven't been overly impressed)
If it's a Colvin headcase issue, then I hope he gets some good advice and decides to stick it out because there will undoubtably be brighter days ahead.
