I am always wearing maize and blue goggles when I see these things, but I find it difficult to project that Rutgers will be better than Michigan (even sans Brown and Livers).
I guess I don’t see why this is any more beneficial for basketball prep schools. And as stated most schools still require a standardized test so not sure how much this would change.
@umhoops somewhat random question: I know you’ve stated before about how Emoni would not be eligible for 2022 draft even if he goes to MSU a year early. Do you have a reference for the specifics of the rule. I’m searching everything I’ve found mentions a year out of HS is enough for eligibility. But I know I’ve heard others mention that so I’m kind of confused
I believe you have to be 19 to sign with an NBA team, but I don’t have the specific rule pulled up.
Is it turning 19 that year? Because JJJ was 18 when he was drafted
I don’t know the specifics. I think they might have to turn 19 that year which is why Emoni’s January birthday throws things off.
Yes, you are right. I found the wording in the CBA. When presented with this info MSU fans have pivoted to “Emoni might want to play 2 years at MSU.”
I need to stop getting on Reddit
If we lose livers and brown I’m pretty confident they will be better than us.
A bit of a plug for @eric_shap. He always has valuable insights here, he puts out good content on Twitter, and now has a website to help the dumb-dumbs like me on technical aspects like terminology and definitions in basketball:
We are obviously really far way from this being an issue, but in the event there isn’t a season what are the odds the NCAA gives everyone another year of eligibility?
With how big our ‘21 class could potentially be that would be quite the interesting scenario. You’d almost have to just ignore scholarship limits for a few years because of the trickle down.
The odds are about as close to 100% as you can get. They already did it for spring/summer sports that missed last season. Roster limits will have to be sorted out in every sport.
The kid Memphis just signed. Cisse I believe his name is. How in the world is he ranked 28 Or so in the country? Maybe not super polished skill wise yet but that kid is a freak. When watching him he’s just so big and athletic. The way he moves for a 7 foot kid is scary. Looks like a lottery pick when ever he chooses.
Dylan did I see somewhere that the 4hr per wk on hands coaching with players begins on Monday?
Recruits are starting to fly off the board
Baylor has put together quite the class over the past couple of weeks
Big college hoops news.
Can’t decide if it feels like yesterday or a decade ago that Jon Teske dominated him in the Bahamas.
Wow. Very interesting
