    And now he's being recruited by some decent programs again. Will be interesting if he gets another shot at that level. it would be REALLY interesting if he ended up at St. Johns and played for Pitino.
    Anyone with eyes could see the potential in KyKy. He was the microwave off of the bench, he just needed to understand decision making a bit better. But he was one of the most athletic players on the team and when he got hot, could give you 20 on any given night. Steele never was able to mold him into a consistent contributor, but he had the tools and the skills.

    His failure at X can be attributed to his head coach, for sure.

    Yeah....but he started off playing 20 minutes a night under Miller and played his way out of that role. in 8 games he was 14-41 shooting (34%) with 24 of those attempts coming from 3 (where he was 8-24). He was 2 for 3 from the line in 8 games. He was ineffective.

    Alot of people credit Miller for Hunters improvement (as do I), but he had the same shot to do that with Tandy, but it just never happened. Not blaming Miller. But also not entirely blaming Steele either. I think Tandy was just not quite good enough to play at this level.

    btw, Tandy had 20 or more points in a game ONCE while at XU. In his final year he had 1 game over 10.

    Will be interesting to see where he ends up and what kind of role he will have.
