row_33 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Should be some good games next week for B1G vs ACC teams, heading into conference play. Vols/VCU at 4pm is the best on paper today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could get drafted out of high school & follow your MLB dreams but if you go into college you are not eligible to reenter the draft until after your junior year. This way if a kid doesn't like where he is drafted out of high school he could hone his skill in college. I think it is tough to win with one & doners in the tournament unless the talent is superb. There is such an advantage in a tournament setting of having upperclassmen leadership especially in the backcourt. I think K & Cal are starting to realize this. They will still go after the one year players but it takes supreme talent to win it all with that kind of setup. Duke couldn't do it last year & that was a once in lifetime freshman class.

Cripple Creek Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Is two games enough for behavior like this? https://sports.yahoo.com/horrific-sucker-punch-gets-saint-leo-basketball-player-a-twogame-suspension-174630407.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Sparty took an early 8-0 lead at Northwestern and couldn't shake off the home team, won easily but a good game. Winston led the charge with 20+ and NW frosh Boo Buie went on a heat check for more points than that in the loss, his brother who plays at Penn St was on hand and enjoying it all. Nicknames of Dirt and Baba come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
