n'oubliez pas monsieur Guerrier !JB could have a really nasty team this year with the way Sidibe came on during the second half of last season and the ever versatile Marek gaining 19 pounds and not getting pushed around as much, and not having to play the center position as much, if at all. Throw in a little K Richmond, with Griffin filling the Hughes role and JB could go nine deep.
37? Jon, you ignorant slut.
The NCAA relies on the basketball tournament for nearly all of its money. They can’t afford to go two years without it.If colleges aren’t playing football there’s no way they’re playing basketball
Probably got approved because the NCAA got confused about Allen Griffen to Indiana coaching rumors and thought he was transferring to Indiana
I started reading it as we had a coach change his mind and was heading to Bloomington...(cuz we can't have nice things)Was I the only one that read the post's headline and immediately thought it read "Alan Griffin ruled ineligible"?
I guess I just assume the worst.
This is great news!!!
Is hockey popular in Canada?Could very well be. However, considering the number of players and staff, basketball would be easier to regulate and oversee.
I'm loving sports right now with NHL playoffs all day and I will need my Orange Hoops fix this fall. I'm more optimistic of a January start than November.
No doobt aboot it.Is hockey popular in Canada?
Nope I did too. Not sure why. I came in here to blast the NCAAWas I the only one that read the post's headline and immediately thought it read "Alan Griffin ruled ineligible"?

Love Eli but JG3/Buddy/Griffin is probably our best 3pt shooting trio in a decade
I mean...Nope I did too. Not sure why. I came in here to blast the NCAA
Those unis are da bomb

So - Uncle Drew, Gillon, Lydon never happened?
Just don't know enough about this kid - his game compared to Eli's? Equal to, less, greater?
Agreed. I don't think he has the handle Eli did though but I have watched him make moves that mean he is more than capable of being a good wing off the bounce. I would say slightly better than first year Eli but not as good as 2nd year. He is physical though and I think could finish around the rim better than Eli. Either way it is a huge get to have him eligible.He is a good shooter and tenacious rebounder.
Hasn't shown the same type of handle / ability to create off the bounce for himself and others that Eli did, but he was also not featured in that way at Illinois -- he was used primarily as a spot up shooter, so it doesn't mean that he CAN'T do those things.
