I would hardly call Porter dead weight. He may not fit well with the sysytem Calipari runs, and if he wants to transfer somewhere else so that he can play more his senior year, then that is fine. But that should be his decision to make. If UK or Calipari makes it for him, then that is a big black eye on the program. Running off a good kid who gives everything he has to the team, just before his senior year? That would be an embarassment.

I ask this: who would be more likely to accept a bench role where he may not see very many minutes, a guy like Porter or some hotshot freshman who thinks he should be getting 30 minutes a game? UK can't start all 13 guys, some of them have to come off the bench. Porter would be perfect in a bench role.

You make good points I can understand if we were talking Meeks or Patterson but it's time to start winning again. Porter would be dead weight to the team on the court .He could come in and do mop up duty but I can't see him doing that.I can't see it being a blackeye if they part ways like coach says if you can't play you don't need to be here. Also he said he would help them find another school to go to.If a player like Derrick Rose is there they should be getting 30 minutes or more a game
