A couple of things. First, until I see/hear a transcript of the conversation KF and this kid had about his ability to return to the team and why the kid obviously found unacceptable, whatever KF told him he had to do to return to the team, I am not going to judge either one of them. You can decide to make assumptions about either the kid or KF, but I am just not smart enough to do that.
Second, I have no idea if the lack of playing time afforded the kid was justified or not. I do know that the position coaches make those decisions; you can say KF makes them, but you would likely be wrong. KF has bigger fish to fry than who plays 1, 2, or 3 at a given position.
Finally, I do not wish this young man any ill will. I hope he goes to Missouri and has a satisfying career. I would, however, suggest that before you declare him a starter and a great success, you may want to take your own advice and wait until he accomplishes something. You are, after all, about results when it comes to KF and everybody else. Same rule applies for this young man.
I certainly mean no offense to those who hold strong, and possibly very correct positions on how this whole thing played out. Just be aware of what you can know; what you think you know, on the other hand, may be based on some assumptions for which you have little evidence.
