    Thad Matta OUT @ OSU

    HA, the Donovan stuff has already started on ESPN: Jeff Borzello ESPN Staff Writer There are some obvious names for Ohio State: Chris Mack, Chris Holtmann, Mick Cronin, etc. Wonder if Buckeyes reach out to Billy Donovan.
  5. IMO, I don't think pUKe has much of a chance to land Romeo. The kid is taking the Academic Honors program and it really seems like his parents value an education. pUKe's selling point is one and done, and I don't think that will provide much satisfaction for mom and dad. I really believe that it will come down to IU, Prostitute U, and Duke. If the NCAA ever decides to slam the hammer on Prostitute U, it could really be just us or Duke. I don't know how U of No Classes fits into the picture as of yet with good Ol' Roy showing up at New Albany a couple of days after the championship. Again just my opinion from reading all the articles on Romeo and his family.

    ESPN Cleaning House

    Seems like ESPN could do with a little more spring cleaning! A little more sports, a little less speculation, and a lot less politics. Honestly if it wasn't for games I would even watch ESPN anymore.
  7. ESPN: JBJ is apart of Group 2 for pre-draft workouts for the Kings today.
  8. According to ESPN, JBJ had a pre-draft workout for the Wizards yesterday.
  9. I hear the same thing over and over about this kid from pUKe fans, "He's a freak athlete!" Ok that's cool in all, but according to many draft evals the kid can't shoot! "Oh he will be great, he can be taught how to shoot!" Ok, yes they can teach him how, but what if it takes most of the season to "teach" him how to shoot? "Man, it don't matter he's a freak athlete that's all that matters." I am being to think that I would rather argue with a wall, then discuss any type of subject related to basketball with a pUKe fan. Many don't care that their university has basically became a NBA G-league, or that there really is no graduation rate to really speak of there, they are disappointed when a kid decides to stay more than one year (except for Diallo), and I could go on but I won't. I really wish something would be done about the one and done crap. Make college basketball about being a collegiate athlete not an inconvenient obstacle for the pros. Yes, I know that this is how it is now and there is probably no shot at changing it, but one can hope. I miss the days where players like Calbert Cheaney were tearing up the Big Ten in scoring as a four year collegiate athlete.
  10. Sorry I wasn't able to keep everything updated last night, I was trying to finish painting the nursery for my little girl that will be here in a little over a month. Mom is in nesting/freak out mode and cracking the whip. Well, I got everyone's decision but these two, which I assume that both are returning since there really isn't any info to be found and they aren't on any mock lists?. I can't find any info as to their decisions, so I guess I will wait until the "official" list comes out.
  11. A couple of them are ok guys, but the others that are Purdue Persons, trust me I like to get them all worked up. It makes the day go soo much faster. It was like a little piece of heaven around here for the few Hoosier fans last year when we knocked them out of the tourney!
  12. I don't think they really know what they want, but with a similar situation of a whole new team like their last NIT experience, you can get them fired up really fast! Lol.
  13. Trust me, with all the pUKe fans in my office, it wasn't official!.
  14. Down to: Caleb Swanigan Hamidou Diallo Fred Simms Clandell Cetoute Chris Clemons Josh Robinson Craig Victor II
  15. Thanks, I believe I under estimated the time it takes to keep track of all the things going on with the draft and transfers, but it is nice to have one place where at least part of the info is there. My transfer list is mostly incomplete due to the sheer number of transfers that happen. I tried to keep up with the bigger news stories and the ones closer to the Big Ten.
  16. The flood continues and here is a list of guys running it to the wire or I just can't find any info on their decision as of 10:30. Omer Yurtseven C NC State (50/50) Ted Kapita, F, NC State (Likely to sign agent) Caleb Swanigan, F, Purdouche (working out with the Knicks today before decision) Tacko Fall, C, Central Florida Hamidou Diallo, G, Kentucky (Meeting with advisors today) Jaren Sina, G, George Washington (Reports stating will play in Europe) *Moritz Wagner, F, Michigan Will return if projected as 2nd rounder *D.J. Wilson, F, Michigan Will return if projected as 2nd rounder MiKyle McIntosh, F, Illinois State (Will transfer if draft is a no go) Johnathan Williams, F, Gonzaga Fred Sims, SG, Chicago State Jashaun Agosto, G, LIU Clandell Cetoute, F, Thiel College (PA) Chris Clemons, G, Campbell (worked out for the Nuggets 5/23) Josh Robinson, G, Austin Peay Arrested May 8th, Suspended from team, Draft Status ??

  17. http://www.theleafchronicle.com/story/sports/college/apsu/basketball/2017/03/08/austin-peays-top-guard-robinson-arrested-suspended/98902518/ I don't think this helps his chances with the draft and he's been suspended from the team as well
  18. Yeah the Draft list is on page 1 transfer list on page 9.
  19. Well I figured the flood of returns was coming, but didn't allow enough time at work yesterday to edit the list. The list is now updated as of 7:30 this morning.

    OT: The Newest Baby Hoosier is Here!

    Congrats, my little girl is due July 3rd and I don't think my 5 y.o. son is all that thrilled, lol!
  21. The flood of names withdrawing from the draft has started. A few updates as of 3:30 EST. I believe I might be busy in the morning.
  22. Both Oregon State players, Drew Eubanks and Steven Thompson, Jr. have decided to return and withdraw from the draft.
  23. Couple updates to both lists today, Jaaron Simmons withdraws from draft and will transfer from Ohio to Michigan. King withdraws returns to CU.
