Please — Pavle Nikolic

Having a different opinion doesn't equal having your head in the sand.

For the Michigan game last year I paid more for parking in a grass lot ($280) than I did for the three tickets total. Think I got the parking tickets about three weeks before the game and a week later they were already up to $380....and it wasn't like it was a lot that was close.

IMO Tucker DeVries is a better college player than Javon Small. So when you say that IU is 'West Virginia without Javon Small', I don't get it. DeVries > Small Wilkerson > anybody you wish to list second at West Virginia last year.

I would assume if that Woody hadn't gotten fired, he would have lost Ya to Oregon as well. Sounds like he wants to be at his alma mater.

After talking about golf in another thread, thought I’d start this thread. Questions: 1. What clubs are in your bag? 2. What balls do you play? 3. What club do you hit from 150? 180? 200? 4. What is your lowest nine ever? Lowest 18? 5. Average score/handicap?

Nikolic put up 16 points and 2 rebounds, ended up averaging 16.6 pts and 6.4 rebounds in the tournament, leading Serbia in both categories. Shot over 50% from the field and was 8 of 19 from three.

Pavle Nikolic put up 21 points and 5 rebounds; has now averaged 16.7 pts and 7.2 rebounds for the tournament. Would love him to be scholly #13.

Difference was Woodson had NIL.

Pavle Nikolic: 22 points on 8/17 from the field 3/5 from three) and 8 boards. Now averaging 16 points and 7.6 rebounds. he’s going to help somebody….

Teammate Pavle Nikolic added 14 points and 9 rebounds and has averaged 14 and 7.5 for the tournament. Considering the review he got from the draft express scout he seems like a good late option to add

I would say if Tucker DeVries had been healthy, yes West Virginia would have had a season that IU fans were proud of. I would also say that IU's roster is better than what West Virginia had last year. IMO.

I think it was part of the reason that IU was optimistic about Goode getting his waiver -- especially since Agobhor received his waiver all the way back in the beginning of May.

I wonder if DeVries will take a look at Ristic's U-20 Serbian team mate 6'7" forward Pavle Nikolic. Jon Chepakevich (director of scouting for Draft Express.com said that Nikolic looked like a high major talent in Serbia's win over France (he put up 21 and 10 and is averaging 14 points and 7 rebounds in this year's FIBA tournament; last year at age 18 he played in the FIBA tournament for Serbia's U20 team and averaged 10.4 points and 4.7 rebounds).

I would agree that it fits with what they have done EXCEPT the exception they made for Justice Ajogbor who played all of his games between February 4th and March 5th. Can't be just a minutes played thing because Leal was denied in a season where he played fewer minutes than Ajogbor. I completely understand Goode and Leal being denied because they fit the NCAA rules of being denied. But what doesn't make sense is that Ajogbor ALSO fit the model for denial in the same manner that Goode did. To my knowledge Ajoghor is the only basketball player to ever receiver a waiver for a year in which he played in the second half of the season....why is that the case?

So did Justice. He didn't play his first game until February.

If someone can make logic out of how Justice Ajobor was given eligibility and Goode wasn't, I'm all ears. Both played four years, both had one season where the only games they played were in the second half of the season. While Goode played 10 games, two of those games were not on the regular season schedule (one was in the BTT and was in the NCAAT), so both played under 30% of the games of the season.

At the same time, Ristic is a very key player on a U-20 team in a basketball crazed nation the size of Indiana.

1. Ballo 2. Rourke 3. Garzon 4. Cig 5. Ponds 6. Schwarber 7. IUFB makes playoffs 8. Lee Corso

After three years of having a Temu coach, we expect more.

Goode applied for a waiver in March. It’s now July. Ridiculous that the NCAA has not given a decision.

Question: Will Purdue win a BT game?

9-3

His case was very weak. Goode’s is stronger but still not under the letter of the law.
