Michael Porter left the team voluntarily to spend more time with his wife & family.

 

It'd be a nice gesture, but I don't think he wants to come back.

Just sayin...

 

I could shoot 33% from the 3pt. line with nobody in the same zip code like he had it last year and I am 58. You had to send him an invitation to shoot. He can not dribble against pressure at all, slow on defense, he was just not a good PG.

1. I HIGHLY doubt you could hit 33% playing in the SEC no matter what.

2. He was hesitant to shoot because he was playing the point, it wasn't his job to shoot.

3. You're right, he's not a great PG. The point was that he'd probably get minutes at SG (however limited they would be) instead of PG.

 

 

He was the second best 3 point shooter on the team. He's a solid PERSON and if there's room on the squad and he would like to be on the team, I would welcome him back. He wouldn't be a critical piece of the puzzle, but I wouldn't mind seeing him bring 5-10 minutes a game.

The days of UK playing a person of Porter's athletic ability are long gone!

I like Porter as a person, but he needs to focus on his family at this point. If he stood to make millions or even hundreds of thousands on a pro contract, I would be all for his return. It would be worth the sacrifice to his young family, IMO. Being that he would likely never see the court, however, I think his best decision is at home with the wife and baby. JMO...
