Amile Jefferson ruled out for the rest of the season. School has applied for medical hardship waiver to come back in 16-17.

That'd be massive for Duke with what they have coming in and returning next year... that wouldn't be fair.

Yep still in the running for Bolden too

I do wanna see Harry Giles play... Duke will be really good... Giles, Tatum, Jackson and DeLaurier conning in. Lennard, Jeter, Thornton, Allen... if Jefferson came back wow... I don't even know who would start. Thornton, Allen, Tatum, Giles, Jefferson... Jackson, Lennard, Tatum, Giles and Jeter. Crazy.

Because college basketball has been a declining sport for quite some time now. Soccer on the other hand is a growing sport in the US. In 20 years it could be the #1 sport in America.


Are you making this up? Last years final four was the most watched final four in 22 years. The pUKe vs. Wisconsin game drew a higher viewership rating than this years College Football Playoff.

And the rest of the year? College basketball viewership and attendance had been going down for years and last year was at its worst. So was scoring actually. I don't know how the viewing and attendance is this year though.

They will be. Though I don't think they'll have the depth UK and Duke will probably have

all depends who actually comes back for Kentucky. If Michigan st gets Jackson as well they will have more depth, they will lose he seniors which will hurt but they will have tons who played this year while Valentine was out. Harris, Tum Tum, Davis if he is back, Ellis, Clark, Macquaid, schilling, goins all played meaningful minutes plus add that monster class in my opinion they will be right up there with the other 2

I wouldn't be surprised if Allen left for NBA this year.

Who leaves Kentucky will be interesting. Because they need 5 to leave. I'm Ulis, Poythress and Murray. Then Hawkins transfers and I think they have a bench warmer with a scholly. They'll be big again and athletic.

Can't say I follow this stuff to much, but seen these names mentioned before..

 

‏@jeffborzello: Northern Iowa winning games actually gives Wichita State more than one top-90 RPI win, so that's fun. But that resume is severely lacking.
