I think the difference between you and a rational person is that we don't immediately assume AG sucks at his job because of it.
I'm sure he noticed we don't have a PG. He can't just grab any PG out there and have that kid eat a scholarship for the next 4 years. It has to be the right fit. He may be looking at someone on the roster and be thinking "That kid can run my system just as well as the available Freshman".
Either way - while we are all worried about the PG position - can we please let AG put together an opening day roster - and play some games before labeling him a failure?
And remember - we didn't hire AG for today. We hired him for a long term vision. I think it will be tough to truly measure his success for a few years. Let him develop some players and let him get some of his own guys in here. Give him time.
If you aren't willing to give him time - that's fine. But do the rest of us a favor and throw your computer in a dumpster and set it on fire. I'm all for debate and banter, but you are a special kind of something.

UDSCOTT has been overreactive his whole time on this site. When he's not looking for tickets or parking, he's bashing the future based on the present. He was ready to throw AM to the wolves after 1.5 seasons. In late 2013 he stated emphatically that Devon Scott was a stud and should absolutely take over for Kavs as the Flyers starting center.
Despite what we've seen of players like Oliver, Scooch, Pollard and K. Davis, he looks at a freshman's production and declares the future in the toilet.
Is he right that the Flyers have no PG as of now? Yes. If UD gets very good PG play in November will he be back here admitting that he was wrong about AG's patience in April and May? No. He will be here asking for tickets.
Take him with a grain of salt.
