Are you guys watching this? Ron Patterson is playing right now for Syracuse. I didn't know he ever got any minutes. Anyone know if this is new or has he been playing lately? His departure from Indiana was an interesting one if anyone remembers it


He has played every game for them. He just sucks

@AEgentZer0: Tough way to end... Wouldn't want to do it with anyone else but these guys! Back to work we go...

Austin Etherington
.

The inarguable context is he transferred from a place where he wasn't happy to a place he supposedly is happy. Knowing THAT context, it reads harshly towards his past teammates. Maybe unintentional but I vote not. A subtle blow to past teammates who will read it.

Edit-but as you say, this is his current team, so I am glad he feels that way.

You also like to read into things this way.

Also, I'm not sure what wound he left by transferring that he could be rubbing salt into.

I say he's just happy to be playing for Butler, and glad that his team had a solid season. Nothing more.

Have you ever left a job angry? Or a position? It usually results in leaving a "wound". Occasionally the departure is mutual but more often than not, it's one sided. It leads to hurt feelings that are never resolved. Yes, he is happy now. Great! Is he "wounded" by his first "job" ending? Likely. Is this a subtle jab at the past "employer"? The second line was placed there for a reason. He has had two sets of teammates. Even if unintentional ( and I vote not) it's a comparison of programs/teammates.

Austin Etherington isnt a Big Ten player. Who cares?

 

So if he had transferred to a B1G school, you would care?  This is a Hoosier Transfer and Recruits thread, not the thread for those who transferred to within the B1G.  C'mon man.
