RE: 2016-2017 Freshmen of the Year predictions

I know Miami fans don't want to see Cooper for another year, but IMO, that would be a mistake. This Miami team has a ton of young talent and I think they will make real noise next year, led by both the Weathers' brothers. Of them, Michael is a true stud. His game is just so smooth. Marcus Weathers is no slouch either, but if Michael had Marcus' height, your talking an NBA player for sure.
I've actually made it a point to watch (stream) as many Miami games as I can just because I want to watch Michael Weathers play.
It's a disservice to the Weathers brothers to keep Coop around, he's had an atrocious track record of developing his players and game planning effectively around them. He's had five years to rebuild, he's a nice guy but can't get it done in Oxford. We risk driving them away (we actually don't have to fire him, his contract expires at the end of the year), but with a good hire they'll stick around and realize their full potential as we rebuild.
