I wish Kostas had played another year at Dayton — I think he would have blossomed this year. Failing that, I wish he’d completed the academic year. But neither of those things happened. But he WAS at UD most of two years. He showed flashes of brilliance on the court, and he never said a bad word about his teammates, coaching staff or the university. He posted a gracious farewell to Flyer fans, and he even returned to help out at one of the summer camps. We could have done far worse than with this kid, who by the way still wears Dayton apparel. He was drafted, which shines a positive light on UD, and now he has a chance to make his NBA dream come true. I’ve never understood why anyone would cast him in such a negative light or take potshots at his character. It’s fine to be disappointed that his Flyer days are over, but it’s also fine to take pride in a kid with NBA potential who will always be affiliated with the University of Dayton. In my book, that’s a good thing.
