July 31, 200917 yr Why? Because Perry has given his heart and soul and 3+ years to this program just so he can sit on the bench and wear the jersey. He knows his role and he knows it's not on the court and he's taken on that role very well. He's the one who shows recruits around, he's got a great personality and he's given alot more to this program than most guys on the roster. Is it in the form of points and rebounds? No. But it's intangible stuff and you need guys like that on the roster. A bad move by Cal, bottom line. Cal has done nearly everything right. This isn't one of those things. It's not like Perry ever thought he was gonna play. He knows his role and was very content and even successful with it.

July 31, 200917 yr I agree but I dont think its that big of a deal, I think it was a good move TBH Tell Dwight it's not a big deal when Senior Night rolls around. Tell his teammates that know how hard he works in practice (Stevenson, PPat, Ramon, etc) and knows he'll never see the floor yet he's OK with that. No big deal?

July 31, 200917 yr Tell Dwight it's not a big deal when Senior Night rolls around. Tell his teammates that know how hard he works in practice (Stevenson, PPat, Ramon, etc) and knows he'll never see the floor yet he's OK with that. No big deal? Right, no big deal. Even though you're dealing with relatively young kids, its still a job and its a "business". Coach Cal understands that. I understand that.
July 31, 200917 yr Were you upset when Calipari didn't keep BCG's assistant coaches? Not at all but that's a totally different situations. The good majority of assistant coaches have no true vested interest in the long term welfare of the program. They're assistant coaches because they want to be head coaches one day. Totally different for players (especially walk ons who are likely going to be a part of the program for four years) who usually become fan favorites because of their role on the team.

July 31, 200917 yr Right, no big deal. Even though you're dealing with relatively young kids, its still a job and its a "business". Coach Cal understands that. I understand that. So what value has Cal added to the team by removing Dwight Perry? What aspect of the "business" does that improve?
July 31, 200917 yr So what value has Cal added to the team by removing Dwight Perry? What aspect of the "business" does that improve? I'm not Coach Cal, so you may want to ask him that. :thumb:
July 31, 200917 yr Author This is worse than when Dan Devine came to Notre Dame from the Green Bay Packers.
July 31, 200917 yr So what value has Cal added to the team by removing Dwight Perry? What aspect of the "business" does that improve? He evidently has his reasons. He said when he first came there would not be a lot of walkons on the team next year.
July 31, 200917 yr Lose alot of respect for Cal with this move...mainly because of Perry. Weak move on his part. Please refresh me here, how did Perry help the team in any way. I didn't see him score a point, get a rebound, or dish out an assist all year. The only thing i saw him do is act like a moron on the bench.
July 31, 200917 yr Author Sadly enough, this is the one season when Perry would actually get some cigar minutes.
July 31, 200917 yr So what value has Cal added to the team by removing Dwight Perry? What aspect of the "business" does that improve? An extra seat for someone to stretch out.
