The late signing period is very late--April or May.
Last summer when Papagiannis was in the states, I was told that he barely had any interest in college so it was no surprise to see him leave and play pro ball overseas. Playing time can be rough for young players over there, so now I guess his camp wants to keep options open over here where he can impress pro scouts in the states and be on the fast track to the NBA.
If he wanted to do that, why did he come to the US for a year? Seems he would be eligible for the 2015 draft if he hadn't done that. Meh ... good for UK.
Because the NCAA is a fair and equal organization devoted to ensuring that student athletes aren't taken advantage of.
I think my sarcasm meter is broken again. Damn 9 bolt batteries, they always ruin me!
If she needs a pole to run that flag up...
I believe the saying "Absolute power corrupts absolutely fits the NCAA. Perhaps they look at Syracuse so much is that they find a lot of problems when they do look.We all know or should know that the school has messed around with academic and athletes for multiple decades.
Sorry but it happens at Kentucky. It's called boosters, how do you think PayPal Cal gets all the talent every year since he's been there.
Papagiannis contract claims he can still be college eligible as long as he doesn't accept any payments. That was suppose to be the same deal with Kanter and we saw how that turned out.

Impossible to prove, of course, but logic demands that most, if not all, of Cal's recruits would have made it to the NBA regardless of where they played their college ball.
When you are selling the "one and done" machine to kids, and their stock drops while at the One and Done Factory, it should ruin the illusion, but then they spin it with the stupid platoon BS. People are blind.
You're still my bro two3, but I have to.
Being successful in what you do is fine, unless what you do is illegal, or immoral. or just plain stinks.
I'm sure he really cares what you think.
