The next group over was the radio call which is ESPN. One of the replays showed Dookie V crapping himself.

That is nuts.

If a program can win 2 national championships the last 3 years with those recruiting classes, they probably have the best coach in America.

Good luck at the understatement of the year awards.

So much of it is getting good players who stay. Try having Cody and Vic in 14. Try James, Thomas and OG this season. Guys who have 1 and done's have to replace their best players each year, but often don't replace them with "like" quality because recruits don't know if they are staying or going.

Tony Carr from Penn State is going pro and hiring an agent. If he had come back, I actually think Penn State would have contended for the conference next year. Now they lose their star PG and have no bench. Probably missing the tournament next season as well, although Stevens and Watkins will be two of the better players in the conference.

Tony Carr as well.

Big Ten news: As expected, Penn State guard Tony Carr, the second leading scorer in the Big Ten this past season, announces he will go to the NBA and hire an agent.

Penn St. will take a little hit next year...

Ummm...a major, major hit.

Both of their starting guards (Carr and Garner) are gone; those two averaged about 86% of the guard minutes per game and about 71% of the team's made three point shots. Their recruiting class has no top 150 players.

We lost our starting guards and should be better!

I agree. They were looking like a top team in the B1G. Maryland and IU could be the wild card in the B1G next year.

Does anybody on here think Haas will get drafted?? I think if Haarms entered the draft he would get selected before the big doofus. Haarms has a lot more potential.

Haarms would be selected before Haas. Although a knock on Haarms is his age. I wouldn't be surprised to see Haarms get some time in the NBA depending on his development.

Haas won’t get drafted but I see him on summer roster and having a chance.

I continually see him as better than my fellow BTB family. That size was very hard to account for in college and would still be hard to account for in the NBA. He’s huge. And hits Free throws. It’ll be a big loss for Purdue. Now only if C.Edwards bolted too.
