Tell me Ruffin isn't one of the top 5 players in the Valley. Leads the league in steals at 2.0. @nd is 2nd in assists and A/TO margin. Over 13 ppg helping a depleted and undermanned team picked near the bottom of the MVC by EVERYBODY to within a breath of 3rd place.
All this while teams addmittedly run special defense's to stop him knowing that as Ruf goes so goes BU. I know many say Ruf isn't even the best player on the team....while I really don't care and don't get into those arguments WF gets the benefit of having teams concentrate on Danny. Credit to Will as he does a great job with it and I love him as a BU player. I would call him equal to Ruffin but I'd give Ruf the team MVP....again NOT that it matters.
I asked a few people who said Danny should have stopped shooting the other nite when he was off at what point does a shooter decide to quit shooting? Ruf started the game against DU 2-8 and ended up 6-6 in the second half hitting all 5 threes.
So I ask again...WHEN should DR quit shooting? IF DR has a weakness CB described it today that he tries to do too much. Yes he could possibly reel it in on occasion but maybe thats what makes him so good, he keeps attacking.

If so he would be back next season with the extra year of play to team with a young Sam M and teach him the ropes! 
DR id kind of like ZA to the Braves......if either struggles ...the whole team struggles so as they go...so goes the Braves......so YES he is an very important part of this team and should be considered the floor leader IMO!
