Still don't know what your Jooris, Hanowski and Cundari examples had to do with Colborne, but I agree there is a similarity to Knight.
Regardless, my concern isn't so much whether or not we traded a 4th for someone's prospect. From the beginning my concern was the "meritocracy" and how this looks to me like Burke's vanity project.
But perhaps I have to accept that the people sent to Abby are indeed rather awful and deserved to get beaten out by a player that wasn't in camp.
