Impromptu basketball presser at 3 today

[MSUDC11]

No specifics given. I'm guessing someone is declaring for the draft though. Probably Malik. Hopefully it's just Malik.

We're surrendering to UConn

 

[msstate7]

We're surrendering to UConn

Actually we're announcing our men are gonna play uconn women instead. Line moved to uconn - 10

 

[1msucub]

Nothing of the sort; they are addressing the Hump's unfair acoustics

 

[missouridawg]

This is kinda scary with the Pitt opening...

 

[dawgstudent]

I'm guessing it's Malik related.

 

[rem101]

Rumor - Malik to Kansas. Pulling a Rodney Hood. Supposedly came from Horatio.

I don't believe it. If he's leaving, he's going to the league (or attempting to). Just a text I got yesterday.

I'm not sure even if that were true it would warrant Howland calling a presser.

 

[msstate7]

I'm guessing it's Malik related.

Yeah, declare, but no agent

 

[dawgstudent]

I hope we wouldn't call a press conference so Malik can tell us he's going to another school.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

That would be the most M-State thing ever

 

[Dawgbite]

All wrong, it's to announce a transfer. Some kid named Victor Vivians!!!!

 

[rem101]

I agree. Like I said, I don't think it's true anyway.

Just this thread reminded me to post it.

Jon Rothstein just tweeted Malik will enter the draft, but leave the door open to return. Exactly what he should do.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Usually Pitt would be holding that press conference.

 

[121Josey]

No way. It's to announce that Uber is coming to Starkville.

 

[dickiedawg]

No way. It's to announce that Uber is coming to Starkville.

And Dak is their new spokesman.

Why wouldn't a kid take advantage of the new NBA draft rules. Is there a limit on how many times you can declare and then withdraw?

Impossible. I've been told many times on this site that he's leaving no matter what and I was crazy for saying there's a chance he might change his mind and come back next year. **

Seriously, this is exactly what he should do. See what the interest is from the NBA, get their feedback, and then make a decision.

 

[coach66]

Deep sez he is taking two online course to stay eligible. I would say it's

50/50.

If I am reading this article from our friend Jeff Goodman correctly, you can do it as many times as you like.

Ha. In other words, oh ****, I may not be a slam dunk for the NBA after all and I've already missed too much class to pass 2 of my regular classes. Good luck to him whatever he decides.
