This is the saddest thread that I have read in a long time. I completely believed when I saw all the responses to the title of the thread that it would be Cyclone fans upset about somebody totally bashing somebody that is ripping one of our players. Instead I see all kinds of people piling on to a guy that's been put in a really tough situation. I understand that he has played at a much lower level than everybody (myself included) expected him to. However, he's trying to do what is asked at him and we obviously don't have too much depth at his spot to take time away from him. Kind of like somebody said this fall when everybody was bagging on Shaggy, it's not his fault he's the best we've got at that spot right now. To top it off, he's a guy that loves being here and is probably the most team oriented guy that we put out there. Sure we'd all love him to put up some points, assists, etc, but right now he doesn't seem capable of doing that for us. It's still no reason to make heat of the moment criticisms of him and cry for his scholarship to be stripped. Hopefully in the next year our depth will be such that he doesn't need to be getting the minutes that he's gotten this year (unless he improves), but in the meantime try being supportive of a team that everybody expected to struggle greatly this year. Hopefully this was just a heat of the moment thread where people were upset watching the game and isn't indicative of how we would normally act as ISU fans.
