No one blames him for leaving. I wouldn’t blame any player for leaving this **** show and this piece of **** staff. Everyone understands the circumstances so we aren’t blaming the kids for leaving.
But if you really want to accountability, and for a Miami commitment to mean something then you have to set that tone. It’s not a knock against Hightower or any other kid. It’s leadership 101. Jarren, Tate and Thomas should’ve been shown the door and Reed should’ve never been allowed back in.
Once Manny stabilizes the program and establishes himself as a real head coach then I’d have no problems letting kids back that hit the portal. But this program is not in that place right now.
Respect to you and your nephew, this is nothing against him.
