Caroline goes off for 40 points last night along with 12 rebounds and 3 assists. What a difference maker he would have been if he'd staid.
Three things helped him become this kind of player, sitting out a year so he could work on his outside game, playing somewhere that he didn't have to play center, and not playing for bh. He would have been good here but not as good as he is now.

Exactly. He wouldn't be going off for 40 points here; he'd be getting a third of his shots crammed back down his throat because BH would have had him playing center.

He also broke the MW record for double-doubles, formerly held by Kawaii Leonard. If he was two inches taller, he be NBA material. Not sure now with his size.
Hard to believe a former SIU player is averaging 18 points, 10 rebounds and is one of only 20 finalists for the Wooden Award. Uggh.
Caroline would have been a fantastic player for SIU, had he stuck around. Unfortunately for Caroline, unless he's the next Charles Barkley, he's not going to be a difference maker in the NBA. He doesn't have the height required for the position that he plays. Unless you're drafting in the top 3 spots in the 1st round of the NBA draft, it's a total crap shoot. They might as well just open it up to free agency after they draft the first three players.
