This is the least crazy thing in college sports at the moment. Who cares if kids can officially visit more than 5 schools? Not me Visit all of them, why not?

ADAM ZAGORIA Fordham coach Keith Urgo scored a major coup on Thursday when he landed a commitment from four-star former Arizona State commit Jaden Smith.

Good point, Reef. Why I am thinking 6 is I am figuring that the Cavs will have one lights out shooting game like the Heat did then, the C’s will sleep walk one game, like they tend to do occasionally. Of course, both those things above could happen in one game so that the series goes 5. Btw, what i...

Yep Ramster, saw that. Huge get for Urgo, surprised he was able to land him. Reopened his recruitment last month after signing the all important NLI last November to Arizona State And he chose Fordham over other schools, including URI? Or, was Rhody not interested? For all the "show me the big...

I don't normally use per 40 stats, but anyway, for Wilborn, they are Pts: 16.88, Reb: 11.56, Assists: 2.66, Blocks: 2.5. You are missing the fact that he was only a freshman, being an impact player in his 1st year of Div. 1. I was hoping we would get him, but I am sure the staff has other options. ...

We're not talking about a project in Zapala. We're talking about a 5th year senior. C'mon. I would have loved Wilborn. I think he's going to be a great player.

The literal first sentence of YOUR post says "I think Green could end up at shooting guard." So yes, you thickheaded idiot, you did say Green at 2 . Jesus Christ (sorry for triggering some of you), you're going for the leg sweep huh, Johnny? Lol To quote the Falcon, "he's out of line...

ramster

Again, Never said 2. Green Could play similar role to Leggett - shooting guard/wing. Green Can shoot the 3FG at an even better % than Leggett, can drive to the hoop with good creativity, handles the ball well, passes well, good leadership. Some A10 teams play a Center, 2 Forwards and 2 guards Some ...

Yea man! 6'7' David Green who average under 1 assist to be our starting 2 guard! Cam? Nah. Jaden? Nah. Lawrence? Nah. The most prototypical forward David Green? Starting 2 guard! Over those 3 I just listed! You nailed it! Again, Never said 2. Green Could play similar role to Leggett - shooting guar...

ramster

Especially with a leaky packline. 1. I think Green could end up at Shooting Guard. Our best 3FG shooter last season, drives/slashes/weaves to the hoop as well as any player in the A10 and passes well. Traore or another Strong Forward tba could emerge. Note Abu Bakr makes this reference about Traore...

Who said 2?
Certainly was not me

ramster

In a perfect world, Green is as classic of a 3 as it gets. Agree Excellent 3FG%, our best last season Can get his shot off because of his height, unlike some 3FG shooters who struggle to get their shot off unless wide open Drives well to the hoop, very creative, high percentage shooter inside and out

ramster

So, put Green at the 2? At our deepest position by far? That makes no sense. I mean, are you surprised Ramster said that?

Scott,

I think you meant to say he did NOT come here to be 6th man, right?

Exactly my point.

And you can say that about any defense

Miller rated his own defense F-

He knows

ramster

I get Fuchs is our center but we need rim protection like it’s going out of style (height). And depth at the 5. Green is too small at the 4 if we go up against a big team. Last season, our guards got beat a lot and we didn’t have that true rim protector in the paint. Especially with a leaky packlin...

ramster

I did not say he broke any rules But, why did he not tell us sooner. After all, we were not his enemy! Two players better- have we signed two tonight? Both Bassy and Lawrence (also guards IIRC) will both have better stat years than Ben. Are you really doubting this? Lawrence is a SG. Obviously. Bas...

Just seems odd to me JDrums that a non-profit can pay players to play, reap the monetary benefits from the teams performance, and not gave to pay taxes on the money taken in from the basketball and football programs. But the athletes themselves have to pay taxes on the income. Oh well. “Fair share”?

and in every other pro sport, 'everyone' knows...it will soon be the same with this, won't it? It's interesting that there was this (rightful) battle to get paid, which was won, and now, how much we're getting paid is nobody's business. I don't see the "nobody's business' + collectives" m...
