I am happy to have him, but he scored 0 pts in 26 minutes of action for Colorado last year.

So maybe temper our expectations just a bit, for now.

He was behind several NBA draft picks on a really good and deep team.

I haven’t seen anyone on here disparage Laput. What I have tried to argue is (1) Davidson should maintain some academic standards for athletic eligibility; and (2) one of those requirements should be that the student athlete is pursuing a degree. I don’t think (1) is especially controversial, but (...

I'm glad this young man is going to play for our team and attend our school. Welcome, Zach!

Any restriction on transfers is going to be met with successful litigation by players on antitrust grounds. Ironically, the best thing for the schools would be for the players to unionize and enter into a collective bargaining agreement with the NCAA under which they AGREE to some limitations on tra...

Hot and flat.

There was a transfer prospect on campus this weekend. Not sure which one, but coach Matheny told me coach McKillop was in the Soda Shop with a player they hoped to bring on. The weather and the campus were SPECTACULAR this weekend, so I hope that helped. Soda Shop close. Hopefully that did the tric...

Never heard of this and was not aware it happened. Absolutely. There were resi...

Dude needs to work on his grammar.

Really, dude?

Laput looks like an excellent player. I’m sure he’s a nice, smart guy. I don’t have a problem taking someone from a D2 school (and Bentley is USNWR’s #1 “regional university” in the North). But I’m pretty uncomfortable with having players who (1) will be at Davidson for only one year maximum, or (2...
