Hey Ryan,
I wanted to get your opinion on two players I saw this past Saturday.
Sam Young looks like he has the ability to step in and provide quality minutes for the Grizzlies right away.
Pooh Jeter (of Portland) looked like he belonged in the NBA despite his small stature.
I only got to see these two play once, but I thought they were impressive. Did you know how they did overall? Thanks.
Also, there are some foreign leagues that play during the NBDL's offseason, and many players play in both. They don't pay as much as the big-time European leagues, but it's at least a little extra money.
I've got to go with Dave on this one. This kind of attention just isn't good for most kids this young. Fortunately, Muhammand sounds pretty grounded, so he may be an exception to the general rule. I hope he is.
I don't fault Kruger. I'm sure he needs to recruit like this in order to keep up with the competition.
The NCAA on the other hand . . . 7th grade . . . what a joke. Between this early recruiting and NCAA-sanctioned meat market summer leagues and camps, college basketball becomes more and more disgusting every year.
It seems that the NCAA is intent on making college basketball nothing more than minor league professional basketball. When I want to watch pro basketball, I'll watch the NBA.
The NCAA needs to stop making money its main priority, and it needs to focus on the student-athletes' best interests. If they do, the money will come naturally.
I hope this suspension is just a first step. Criminal charges should be filed against Margarito and his trainer.
