And why should he stay? We have a coach who cannot coach and the prospects of ever reaching the NCAA's in the foreseeable future are slim.bmoore52 said:
Can't Reed Rowdies start a campaign with signs etc to convince Robert Williams not to leave?!
It worked with Roy Williams (for a year) at KU... Signs all over "Don't go Roy"... Worth a try!!
I don't think anyone on here thinks Williams will stay if he's actually being told he's a guaranteed first round pick, nor should he.paddyv71 said:
People who think Robert Williams will stay are the same ones who thought Garrett would stay. He's projected as a top 10 pick. While I would love it - because it would make us on paper one of the best TAMU teams we've had, it's not going to happen.

No player is worth keeping around a mediocre coach for another year. It's a loser's argument.
Oh, then we MUST keep Kennedyt - cam said:

Not what I was implying. Just pointing out that I think it would pretty much guarantee that he leaves.old yeller said:Oh, then we MUST keep Kennedyt - cam said:

I would say it differently. He hasn't made plans to leave yet, and he hasn't ruled out coming back.
From sources that have spoken directly to him over the weekend, it's not a done deal and his draft position isn't the only factor in his decision.
With that said, you still have to feel he'll eventually make the decision to leave.

I remember a comment made during the game @Vandy (I think).
Commentator was saying that they had spoken to an NBA scout recently, and that scout had apparently told him that Williams' draft stock had 'possibly gone up too high for his own good'. Said that the higher in the draft you go, then the more likely you will be drafted by a bad team that needs you to play right away. But the scout's opinion was that Robert Williams didn't appear to be a prospect who would be ready to play in NBA games next season. And that because of a greater chance that a high pick to a bad team will get thrown to the wolves regardless, it can be a really rough deal if the kid is not ready.
To be clear. Not my own opinion. Just paraphrasing what I remember hearing during the game broadcast. Cliffnotes version, I think the NBA scout's opinion was basically that it is good to be a lottery pick, but it was a lot better to be a lottery pick AND ready to be a lottery pick. And the scout didn't think Williams was ready and thus his draft stock 'too high for his own good'.
Again, I think during the @Vandy game but not totally for sure on that. It was fairly recent.
Maybe an organization like the Sacramento Kings was on the scout's mind at the time.bobinator said:
Unless he's saying that a team will draft him and play him anyway even though they know he's not ready, then he's calling NBA teams stupid.
