So uh asking for a friend could this effect his academic eligibility? More than likely he graduated after a certain nba deadline. Should’ve called hami diallo but probably too smug to do that
Twitter smoke RE: Sharpe being ineligible for NBA Draft
- Thread starter FiveStarCat
- Start date
Yeah thats probably the case. Kinda funny how everybody speculated and claimed this or that, well, they really didn't know a damn thing. Including the so called "experts"
Ok, who is insinuating he doesn’t want to be on the team next year? And who said he wasn’t going to give us an “honest year”? Like, where is this coming from bro? If you are basing your “like” or “dislike” of Shaedon on this decision, you need to look in the mirror. With your thinking, he is in a no win situation. If he comes back to UK, you are immediately saying….”Well, he is back because he was forced. He doesn’t really want to be here at UK”. But you have NO CLUE what happened behind the scenes. You have no clue what he really wanted. It’s really unfair to place that label on a kid without knowing anything about the truth.
You can’t blame a kid for exploring all his options. Exploring his options is NOT giving the fan base the middle finger. Period!
If Shaedon were smart, he’d play this off like going pro was never really the plan and that he’s really looking forward to winning a National championship for the University.
If he did well at UK this semester he would probably be ok. If he had played and had academic eligibility issues that woulda been nuts huh?
The point was he was obviously cleared to be eligible but missed a deadline but you’d have to have brain cells to interpret that
he has insiders who confirmed it but can’t say what it means. oh man
Sharpe might not have graduated early enough to be considered a year out of the nba draft
With O coming back and possibly Sharpe, there is finally a silver lining.
Appreciate ya. I mean, technically he didn’t. At least what’s publicly known I believe. I’d **** a brick if he came back.
To be fair, all we hear is “from a source”. That could all be BS and he legitimately wants to be here. I mean, he did commit and enroll. One can hope, right? We’re only young for so long. Hopefully he is in no rush to grow up.
This was my only hope of him coming back, his handler not getting agent status helps too. The CBA also helps veterans not get taken out by new picks as well in cases like this, as they would be almost guaranteed a roster spot. They definitely won’t redo the entire thing for him. An exception would be tough as well because then it would open them up to others who want to do it who may not be top 10 picks and could lead to favoritism claims.
I mean, Tbf, it took a pretty big NIL deal for big O to come back. But I’m glad he is.
You ain’t lying. Hopefully we didn’t use it all on Oscar. Gots to spread the love.
The whole deadline thing was that he needed to be graduated from HS before the start of NBA season.
I don't think this means Sharpe isn't sharp. It just means he may have not been graduated in time which makes sense. Who graduates in September/October?

I think it would be ridiculous if Sharpe were eligible and the Memphis failure was not.
Be real nice if they made this an actual rule that makes sense .. like no years or two minimum if you enroll..

If you are talking Bates, he’s like 17 or just turned 18. Completely different situations. Like, completely cuzzo.
Sure seems like this has some validity.
But, it just always seems like there is an easy loophole when it comes to these types of things. It is curious though that he hasn’t declared yet. Doesn’t really make sense to wait to say you are leaving or testing the waters.

The Shawshaedon Redemption:
"For the second time in my life, I'm guilty of committing an NBA bylaw infraction -- draft ineligibility. I doubt they'll toss up any roadblocks, not for an ole prospect like me."

He probably already put in the paper work but didn’t announce it to the public.
Apparently the NBA only rules on eligibility after a player has filed to enter the draft.
FWIW, I tried to tell you guys this back when everyone was losing their minds but nobody wanted to listen.
"Little match girl" style hopes and dreams roster projection before the fantasy is destroyed by noon today when we find out Sharpe's circle found a loop hole:
G - Wallace - Wheeler
G - Sharpe - Fredrick
G - Reeves - Livingston
F - Toppin - Livingston - Portal transfer
C - Oscar - Collins - Ware
G - Wallace - Wheeler
G - Sharpe - Fredrick

I’m sure John Wall, Anthony Davis, KAT, Julius Randle and their counterparts at Duke and UNC-Cheats went to college for a year to delve deeply into applied quantum physics. Since when in the OAD era has wanting to be a college student been a factor?
If he’s at Kentucky there is every reason to assume he’ll play his *** off like all the guys I mentioned, out of personal pride and the selfish reason of raising his draft stock.
