Hickson gone?

You have to wonder if N.C. State freshman J.J. Hickson has played his last college game. I just overheard some reporters from Raleigh saying they thought he was a goner.
Personally, I haven’t been that impressed by Hickson this season, even though I know NBA scouts like him and he’d probably be a first-round pick.
I like Hickson’s teammate, Brandon Costner, better.
I don’t think Lowe has utilized Costner very well this year. He’s turned the versatile 6-foo-9 forward into a one-dimensional player. Maybe it’s because of Hickson’s presence, but it seems like all Costner ever does is stand outside on the perimeter and fire up 3-pointers.
