I'm not going to the trouble of going two years into the archives to pull quotes because I don't have a problem with him recruiting jucos.
What I mean by saying I was disappointed that our last team was led by jucos was simply that the team could have been better than they were with a couple things being different. That the juco guys aren't as "experienced" as they may have seemed. Two seniors, but in terms of experience on our basketball team, were more like underclassmen. And it showed at times.
Plus, anyone here that's being honest with themselves know damn well Mike has been heavily criticized for these things. To this very day.
"We lost two guys early to the NBA? Tough shite. It's his job to manage the roster." The implication here is clear. He's to blame for Qualls and Portis leaving and he's also to blame for the step backwards we took the following year. With the team led by the juco players.

Fake news.
The "step backwards" happened in the 2015-2016 season without Macon and Barford. They came the next year and got Mike back to the tournament.
