When this guy started college I was in my mid 30’s still hoopin twice a week. Now I got bad knees and I am old. Good luck Mr Townes.

I wonder if he can still do a triple lindy dive.

 

[RF2044]

I assume he's chasing a PhD at this point?

If not, I'd be shocked.

While next season will be his eighth in college basketball, Towns could have up to two years of eligibility remaining -- depending on how many years he qualified for a medical redshirt.

That's awesome, hoping he goes for 9. Sounds like he graduated from Harvard, must have an OSU grad degree and can now potentially spend the next two years getting another or a doctorate. Get some NIL $ involved too..

He is living the dream

Uncle Drew!

Have we ever had a professor playing for the hoops team?

 

[Ringostar57]

He will be 26 in November. Have we had anyone this old. I know there were a lot of old guys after WW2 and Korea and a few vets after Nam on the football team. But basketball?

 

[Cuse'91]

We're tight on scholarships; let him fleece some other program.

On the flip side could be a chance to see about getting an AARP sponsored NIL collective going...

go tommy boy.

Tommy:
Did you hear I graduated?
Richard Hayden:
Yeah and just a shade under a decade too, all right.
Tommy:
You know a lot of people go to college for seven years.
Richard Hayden:
I know, they're called doctors.

He was a Roy Danforth target I'm pretty sure. Too bad we didn't get him. Would have made a great Robin to Jon Cincebox's Batman.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

He actually should have 2 years left to play since hes only hooped 3 seasons and his career went through covid?

I thought you had 5 years to play 4 seasons. Adding Covid into the mix should only add one to each. So why isn’t he limited to just one more season?

I think there are medical redshirts in play.

 

[Irt4su]

Maybe he and his son and he can play on the same team in college like the Griffeys did for the mariners
