Interesting quote, painter clearly says it was his decision to redshirt. I've maintained that stance and took heat from a few specific posters.
That’s not really telling though. Of course it’s ultimately the choice of the kid to redshirt, but does anyone not actually think the ramifications for not redshirting weren’t laid out by Painter?
I mean you have a foreign kid whose been in the states for a couple months whose only played a handful games in prep school transferring to a school contending for a B10 title with arguably the best backcourt in the country. What was Haarms going to do? I highly doubt Haarms is transferring because he redshirted 2 months in a unique situation.
