"Hall of Fame coaches like Brown can do this right off the bat. Rookie coaches like Archie Miller have to wait a year before they can pull the trigger. Both coaches have their own motivation for steamrolling players. In Brown's case, he wants to quickly turn around a terrible program as a crowning jewel in a long list of accomplishments before he once again retires. Miller, like Brown, also wants to quickly turn a program around but for a much different reason...so he can move onward and upward. How hypocritical is the University of Dayton to allow this happen while at the same time slapping themselves on their backs for the Ebony Gainey story? Who is Ebony Gainey? She was the UD women's player who before she ever played a collegiate game was diagnosed with a heart ailment and never played for Dayton. Jim Jabir kept her ON SCHOLARSHIP for four years until finally suiting up and starting on senior night. Heart warming story. UD basketball is a business and we as fans demand a better "product" on the floor and if that means dumping a player, whose only "ailment" is low talent level, then so be it. Too bad the athletic department doesn't follow the strength of character and integrity model shown by Coach Jabir."
