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

If Porter leaves on his own because he wants more playing time, then I'm fine with it. But if they run him off just so they can have the scholarship, then that's just wrong. Calipari should say, "If you want to stay, the scholarship is yours. Just don't expect much playing time in my system." If Porter is fine with that, because he's a senior and he wants to play his senior year for UK, then that's up to him. If he really wants to play a lot of minutes his senior year, then he can transfer.

As for your example, guys like Derrick Rose would play 30 minutes a game anywhere in the country. But if you have 10 Derrick Rose-types on your team, they can't all get 30 minutes. There just aren't enough minutes to go around. Someone is going to only get 10 minutes per night, and when it's someone who thinks they should be getting 30, it leads to dissension.
