If Sales signs elsewhere, Lee will just delete the post. He has a history of that.

The ruling does not include players who used their eligibility up last season.

If anyone on their team is over 6'8" and can dribble and chew gum, should we give them a scholly? Need backup bigs.

He won a natty there in just two seasons. And if they are able to keep their roster, they are set up for a third solid season.

Health being the biggest key IMO. Sign.another.playable.big.

Keep building that strawmen. And this time it comes with a side of not admitting you were wrong about the three point line being used in conference play.

It WAS used in conference.

1950 Lakers.

In the first year of the three point line he absolutely under utilized it. And you are the king of strawmen which you prove by then saying I said that Reed Bailey is Wilt’s equivalent. Thanks for playing.

I see you like making strawman statements.

If someone shoots 65% from three but only takes 32 threes all year, that's not a good concept. That's an under utilization of the three point line. At that point the college game had not learned how to maximize the three point line. Four years later Alford would make 53% of his threes and took 202 of them (and from a farther distant three point line). I assume you are not going to seriously argue that Ted Kitchel's three point game in his last season impacted the team as much as Alford's did.

According to this article, he isn’t on a football scholly — he’s a preferred walk on. https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/marian-offensive-lineman-prescott-horvath-090448338.html

And Kitchel shot 65% on a sample of 32 shots, so only shooting them from the widest open of shots. As a team, IU took 50 three point shots in 30 games.

In an ideal world, you fill the last spot early in summer, not in July/August so that the player gets acclimated — especially if it is a foreign player.

Remember when the three point line was different in the ncaa and was determined by conference?

Any chance he would reclassify?

Bit of a difference in the two comparisons. Basketball we are talking about a 60 year difference in training methods whereas Foreman/Moorer were 20 year difference. Also of note that Foreman was down on all three scorecards (two of which were 88-83 Moorer) before Moorer got caught. There are no one punch knockouts in basketball.

I love how goal posts have been moved to give chamberlain today’s training and advances when the question by OP was obviously meant to compare an NBA team in 1964 to a college team in 2026.

In 1964, the Boston Celtics won their sixth title in seven years. and they shot 41% from the floor.

He's certainly an A+ fit. Not sure what he is asking for but I would say it's more than anyone is willing to pay him or he would have signed already.

Wilt Chamberlain led the league in field goal percentage in 1961......shooting 50.9%. Bill Russell highest field goal percentage in ANY year was 46.7%. Even with their size advantage against NBA players in the 1960s, that illustrates how poor of a game that was played in that era.

Sign.an.extra.big. Period.end.stop.

Watching how they played in 1964, I assume that Reed Bailey is a time traveler. Lot of 1964 game in the way he played.

Also of note, Williams now challenges Monden for being the worst scholarship player in the Big Ten. Last year appeared in 7 games at Penn, averaging 8.7 minutes averaging 2.1 points. Previous year averaged 17 minutes averaging 4.4 points. Career 33% shooter.

Re: on the one time transfer rule. The motivation for this is that 'it's good for the game'. The problem IMO is 'what's good for the game' does not equal what 'should be legal'. We've talked about the fact that as a student you are allowed to transfer as many times as you like, and students do this if they think it is to their advantage. IMO, any rule that should be applied to a general student is one that should be applied to a student-athlete.
