So you know the quality of the Italian league also? Damn is there anything you don't know?
Momcilovic expected to remain in college
- Thread starter PopesCrewCut
- Start date
Thanks for the summation. That helps ease my mind some with Mannion at least playing in the Italian league. However, I will disagree somewhat about him being comparable though, as he played 4 years of American high school basketball.
Yes, I was simply showing he had great stats in college and is older and more mature now and averages less in Ndiayes league. It's a highly competitive league.
I hate that we're not mentioned, but I sure hope we are strongly reaching out to him. I can't imagine he wouldn't listen to us, especially with Pope wanting emphasis on the three-point part of the game. I would show him how Koby Brea shot 5.9 threes a game, as compared to his 7.5 clip, and tell him he would be here to score for us from beyond the arc. I could see him shooting 5 threes each half, quite frankly, in many games.
He would greatly elevate out team's potential, to say the least.
NOTE: I did some research and noted that Kentucky took 28.9 threes per game in 1989-90, Pitino's first year. It was the most threes in a season under Pitino. Derrick Miller took 289 shots in 28 games for 10.3 attempts per game ... at a 34.3% clip, averaging 34.1 minutes of clock that year.
So, it is not unheard of for a Kentucky player to average ten (10) threes a game. I'd like to see Momcilovic get the chance to do it !!

This guy would help us more than Stokes, I feel that 1000%. Stokes may end up the better pro and he may average more points next year.. but this kid would open up the entire court for our offense, and do it in a very efficient way. Now if we could get both, we might win a national championship. People can laugh all they want, but you add those two kids...well, match them up. Florida is jack loaded.
Diallo-Fland
Wilkins-Aberdeen
Momcilovic-Haugh
Stokes-Condon
Moreno-Chinyelu
Kam-Klavzar
N'duaye-Brown
Top seven kids man for man, would you be scared of Florida?
He'd be perfect for Dusty as they have a wide open spot at the 3 - if they landed him, they'd again have a perfect roster as they'll have a rim protector, a big 4 with upside, a big shooter at the 3, then McKenney & Cadeau. If they land him - you can hand them the B2B. That is a perfectly designed roster.
This is what's difficult for me. Because you say they have an opening, but they do have Brandon McCoy and LJ Cason that likely want PT. Same with Jalen Reed. I don't know how other coaches can get these starter-type players to be their 6-7-8 men off the bench.
I really hate to say it, but you're probably right ... he fits with Michigan rather well, already being familiar with the BIG TEN style of play.
Well, Iowa St is in the Big12. Dusty has been quiet - I bet this happens. They're not coming off a NC with a gaping hole at the place their best player was while being loaded in the other 4 spots.
NIL is outside the school budget. They have some big timedonors associated with their 502 collective + whatever Adidas is kicking in.
I know Florida was the big one to watch for, but with Haugh back idk how realistic that is. Hopefully we have a good chance at him.
Ooops ... BIG 12 ... you're right !! THANKS for the correction.
Incorrect. Momlivic is a 4. Thatās the spot he always played at ISU, never the 3.
Itās Florida or Michigan- both have huge hip college town atmospheres with on campus gyms with students getting priority seating. Both have monster football stadiums.
Louisville & Kentucky both play in off campus multi use arenas where students are treated like afterthoughts.
Where would you want to play.?

What position was Jefferson? He's 6'9" 240. I think you're kind wrong here kid - lol. Hysterical. Come back to me when you know your ball.
Milan doesn't care about that. He is strictly business and trying to get to the NBA. He isn't worried about a college town atmosphere etc, he isn't an 18 year old American Teenager, his priorities are basketball and basketball alone.
No way is that kid stepping into chaos - if he comes back to college he's going to go to a program that is well run, and into a position that is perfectly carved out for him to make him look great - along with the $$.
To me, that would be Dusty Mays and a wide open box at the three - the dude is not a 4. He doesn't defend, barely rebounds. He is exclusively a scorer. Someone needs to send Smeegs into the "I don't know what I'm talking about" detention center.
Why are you always brow beating this poster? If you donāt like what he posts, then donāt read it. Itās that simple. Put him on ignore. You will be much happier, if thatās possible.
Aberdeen won't be allowed to play unless they make the 5in5 rule retroactive, which reports are that they won't.
Although if they do, then perhaps we add Oweh.
Also for now Chinyelu is still in the draft.
They can call him a 4/PF if they want, but he doesn't play like a 4, so he's NOT a 4.
3.1 rpg (3.06 per30min), 0.2 blk.
That is significantly worse rebounding than Noah, worse than Oweh or Kam.
That is fewer blocks per30min than every player on our team except Aberdeen & JJ.
Papa John back with Louisville and the guy that owns planet fitness is a Louisville fan ,Hey itās like they say it aināt like the old days where just a few teams pay players now everyone pays players
So you don't have any actual evidence to confirm what you're claiming?
Fair enough.
Without support, there's no reason to believe anything you say. College athletes aren't employees, so they can't sign employment contracts.
Until there's evidence of even one player doing so, it's far more reasonable to assume no college athlete has ever signed a two-year deal with any school.
