Rondae is one of the two players Coach Sean Miller brought with him into the post-game presser after the loss to the Badgers. Rondae was non-committal, but Miller was praising his accolades speaking of him almost in the past tense.
Rondae’s stock has not necessarily grown from last season, but he has been consistently a dominant defensive threat.
Let’s take a look at what the experts are saying about Rondae. We are really going to miss his Shimmy! At least York has a semi-shimmy to help us with a gradual withdrawal.
