He wasn't that good defensively. He had 10 steals and 4 blocks all last last season. For comparison sake Herb Jones had 44 steals and 22 blocks here as a true freshman.

This is not a reasonable or fair comparison. Herb is an annual NBA All-Defense candidate, not a college role player. Burnett is a better defender than Cosby, Dioubate, Walters, and - since he's apparently redshirting - Parker, which is what actually matters. Because right now there are very few options for competent perimeter defense on our bench and we certainly could have used him.
