We need to recruit PGs for 2016

[ebucklewis]

In this system we would have never recruited Sherm Douglas or Eddie Moss. Think on that a minute

I've thought about it. No offense to Eddie Moss - but he should not be mentioned with Sherman Douglas.
If Eddie was our point guard we would be pleading for Kaleb Joseph - Eddie was a huge liability on offense.

Lockdown on d with Eddie no drive and alley oop or layup after layup oh wait that's what the zone prevents,and if you would rather have kj than anyone you are grasping at straws

Not going anywhere? "Nowhere near ready"? What's that got to do with anything? Tyler Ennis still isn't ready for the NBA and he's a millionaire. Chris McCullough didn't score over 7 pts in any of his last 8 games. Also another millionaire.

Ya, im assuming you haven't followed what happens to a large portion of those "millionaires" with no education once the D league is over.

Hmm, another one who doesn't quite grasp the concept. Here's some help


That being said, 60 percent of NBAplayers file for bankruptcy five years after retirement.

So if they had each stayed another year they wouldn't be filing for bankruptcy?

You obviously don't get the point. Whether they are ready or not has very little to do with the NBA draft or whether a player declares. It's all about potential. And so what if 60% of NBA players declare bankruptcy. Staying in school and getting a college degree have very little to do with declaring bankruptcy. 20% of all people declaring bankruptcy have college degrees.

Yeah, and that same SI study noted that 78% of NFL players go broke or commit suicide within 2 years! Clearly they should force those NFL players who are declaring out of HS to go to college and stay 3-4 years... Oh wait... Look, I don't have the study in front of me, but I would be willing to bet that the reason for these dire numbers is mostly (but not fully) due to the fact that both sports cycle through a TON of players who play a few games and then never make the league again. Think about a player like James Southerland. He's an "NBA Player" but he's played all of 4 games over 4 years since he left SU. It's easy to imagine him and other players of his type going broke within a few years of stopping playing, especially since life on the road is very expensive. It's not so much the Donovan McNabbs or the MCWs who are going broke, but the CJ Fairs and the Jerome Smiths of the world
