Maybe they know something we don't and they're not telling us because that would be no fun for them.gumby wrote:Big picture: A lot of players are using the opportunity. The list is really long. Aaron Holiday and Thomas Welch just added to it. Most are not hiring agents.
Doesn't mean they're not coming back. A lot of conclusion jumping going on.
We don't get those players. They go to UNC Duke mich st and Kansas.PHXCATS wrote:If Chance isn't going to class he should not get any privileges when he returns.
Really hope Miller Book and Romar can bring in smarter players who will stick around and completely buy into Arizona Basketball

This is why I'm not an NBA Scout: I would figure Dillon Brooks to be a top 10 pick for sure.Merkin wrote:New DX list out.

Agreed. Sean Rooks maybe but in no way is he EE and Rooks was in the NBA for 10 years plus with his offensive moves and being a plus in the locker roomJefe wrote:Worst comparison ever. 2 completely different games.whatisee wrote:Dusan is a white mans Eugene Edgerson without the afro and beating anyone up.
Yeah. That was weird. Gene was an undersized EnerGizer Bunny with zero post moves.Jefe wrote:Worst comparison ever. 2 completely different games.whatisee wrote:Dusan is a white mans Eugene Edgerson without the afro and beating anyone up.
Justin Jackson demonstrated why he isn't. NBA filled with guys longer and quicker than Brooks at that position.cpt wrote:This is why I'm not an NBA Scout: I would figure Dillon Brooks to be a top 10 pick for sure.Merkin wrote:New DX list out.

Not a fan at all. Hes a situational scorer who is going to have to play SF. Hes not athletic enough to make more of an impact at that position, nor is he long or strong enough to play PF. Not a big fan of his at the next level. Situational role player at best, IMO.ChooChooCat wrote:Tweeners without major athleticism never are projected to be a high pick.cpt wrote:This is why I'm not an NBA Scout: I would figure Dillon Brooks to be a top 10 pick for sure.Merkin wrote:New DX list out.

This. Brooks is good in college, but NBA wise, he has to play the 3. At that position, not much stands out.TucsonClip wrote:Not a fan at all. Hes a situational scorer who is going to have to play SF.

What about the part where you can do anything you put your mind to if you work hard enough and never stop believing in yourself?Spaceman Spiff wrote:This.

I remember people saying Rondae would have shut him down. In the NBA, there are a lot of Rondae's.

Or what could've been if our wings went to Oregon rather than play for a coach who is anti-offense and anti-zone.McKale Midwest wrote:Tyler Dorsey just declared for the draft and will sign an agent. That's got to be a good thing for Arizona, just another wing that would go ahead of Trier in the draft... Plus we don't have to watch him light it up another year, and think "what could have been".
If Chance isn't going to class, it is unlikely that he returns. Even if he did return, would he be eligible without attending class for weeks if not months?PHXCATS wrote:If Chance isn't going to class he should not get any privileges when he returns.

I think playing in front of the nations best fans in a packed house in McKale would be what I would miss the most... But what do I know?NYCat wrote:
It's always been expected he will declare without an agent and go through the process, ditto with Rawle of course. They'd both be stupid not to do so as there's no repercussions at all to declaring without an agent. Have always been told if Trier does not get a 1st round promise then the expectation is that he will return. I'm not sure what it would take for Rawle to stay in the draft, but the final expectations are the same as Zo. Anything could happen though.McKale Midwest wrote:I've heard that Trier is likely to announce his decision this week, and is leaning towards declaring for the draft. Has anybody heard similar news?
The only caveat I would put on that is you can only go through the process once. If I were Rawle or Trier and thought I'm a second rounder right now and borderline first next year, I'd try to save the eval to get that first round promise next year if I thought it was unlikely this year.ChooChooCat wrote:It's always been expected he will declare without an agent and go through the process, ditto with Rawle of course.

That's an old rule, you can go through the process as many times as you want now.Spaceman Spiff wrote:The only caveat I would put on that is you can only go through the process once.

My bad, was obviously thinking of the old rule. As I stand corrected, I agree there's no downside to testing the waters.NYCat wrote:Spaceman Spiff wrote: The only caveat I would put on that is you can only go through the process once.

Coaches know in early May. It does cause confusion on who to pursue in the meantime, but it clarifies soon.84Cat wrote:Damn, why would anyone want to coach college ball anymore? How do you know who is actually coming back? This needs to change for the good of the game.
