I don’t think anyone is claiming that Lewis is no good. He certainly has a lot of desirable offensive tools for a PG, but not all of them. And his liabilities on defense became his biggest downfall. Not being ready to defend bigger, quicker guys was something he wasn’t able to overcome, at least not up to now, and it had him sitting more than he thought he should.
IF he couldn’t abide sitting behind someone who is, at this current time, more game ready for high D1 ball than he is, then the smartest thing he ever did was to transfer. Not so much to get away from the situation at NCSU (though from his POV that is of course what it was about), but to let his body and cbb learning curve mature an extra year.
