I understand Bates leaving a LOT more than WJ, but do not understand why he didn't wait till later to announce.

In a pick-up game of "MERCY." Who quits first?

Wesley. He was going to not only start but be the face of the program. Good luck with getting that exposure somewhere else. The only thing making it close is Bates was willing to throw away a whole season to get out and burn his teamates right before a conference game.

Wes - he had no issues with playing time, etc. Bates left because he wanted to play. In that sense, he's no different than CJ...and everyone claims he left with class.
