Class of 2018 PF Simi Shittu (CN) to Vanderbilt

[SoBeCuse]

Unfortunately Vanderbilt lost their other burger boy, Darius Garland, to a season ending injury. They were both playing great. Bilas said last night that Garland was a Top 10 PG in the country regardless of age.

Not sure where to post this but couldn't help but wonder with Drew out as coach at Vandy, does Simi now take a look at Washington? When Cuse was still pursuing him at Vermont Tech (??), Hopkins was definitely the lead guy. I remember Hopkins speaking to him at the Hoop Hall Classic in Springfield before Simi had made a decision.

How about somewhere closer to home?

I think Hop's doing fine (eating our lunch) without additional suggestions.

Sorry, my state of mind isn't in a good place right now

Going to Vandy was a terrible decision then and it's a terrible decision now.

I smell an opportunity.

Yeah, but $$$$$.

I smell an opportunity.

Ditto -- but I have low confidence we'd leverage this opportunity.

Mostly I wanted to make a joke about this player's name.

Total pass . His rating is worse than Oshae and Frank? We don't need anymore stiffs.

Sorry for responding to my own post, but I guess this answers my question ...

Hey, it's not just our players that make mistakes leaving early I guess. It's also the guys we recruit and miss out on.

Would love to see what classes these kids take during their BRIEF time at a school.

I don't think we have to question the validity of coursework at Vanderbilt.

100 level courses and electives.

For at least a semester and a half.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

100 level courses and electives.

Straight shooting here - the 100 level general Ed stuff I had to take in things that were not my strength were some of the hardest classes I've ever taken.

I agree. Not all 100 level courses are created the same. Biology and Psych kicked my ass.
