Lots were disappointing when he went elsewhere and many said we missed out. Maybe 2nd time around is the charm and he is the perfect fit for IU. Or he will go elsewhere and be forgotten again Signed with Delaware. Quote

Demo Posted April 29 Posted April 29 https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/kentucky-mark-pope-meeting-marcio-santos/ Pretty gross if true. The “kid” will turn 24 before the season starts and Maccabi Tel Aviv is an elite program not some Latvian 4th division backwater. Home Jersey 1 Quote

This is the kind of stuff that (1) pi$$e$ me off, and (2) I truly don't understand. What's the deal with grown men who have been playing professionally for several years being eligible to play "amateur" (??) college basketball with 17- and 18-year old kids? "Fairness" notwithstanding, what's the deal with this? J34, Artie86 and Demo 3 Quote

I keep harping on it, but 1) the schools should ditch the NCAA and 2) keep any new rules they make with a strong focus on being paired with the traditional American path of universities being pre job market training intuitions of 19-22 year olds. This is a tragedy of the commons situation where if you let the individual teams bring over 25yr old euros/current pros they will, but it is better off for everyone long term if nobody does. pumpfake, ronzo4IU and Home Jersey 3 Quote

Can’t think of a smarmier pair off the top my head. Not even close, really. And then for the sprinkles on top of that sundae throw in Kim Mulkey, who along with being awful is pretty clearly nuts and they’ve cornered the market on coaches to be ashamed of. ronzo4IU and tkbbn 2 Quote

At IMG he was maybe their 10th guy and every time he entered the game against any team that wasn’t just cannon fodder for them they went 2-3 because he couldn’t defend any kind of movement at all. And he only played a couple of minutes because he’d gas out. God, what those UF bigs would have done to him in practice must’ve been brutal. CSP 1 Quote
