No semi-pro to it. Semi pro means no pay. Im sure these one and dones were well paid at Duke and other like schools, long before the NIL thingy.DungeonRealm wrote: ↑Sat Apr 02, 2022 11:55 amSemi Pro team, does not help the situationFU3 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 02, 2022 10:28 amCoach K recruited the best players he could get to come to Duke.

I am glad that he is calling out the rot in the NCAA and I hope some of his ideas are utilized to make the structural changes needed.
Also never play road games, coach K is the master of taking advantage of the situation and full of BS
Ill listen to some coaches on the matter, I don't want to hear anything out of his rotten mouth though
Taking a Transfer

Still wondering about Malachi Smith at UTC, will he stay or will he go?
I think he's staying put if Jake Stephens, Bubba Parham and Kamdyn Curfman join him in Chatty.
That sounds like only the wishful thinking going through a UTC fans mind, no doubt Jake Stephens is either going Pro somewhere in Europe or P6 college ball
Stephens has not even entered the portal, so that tells me he's leaning heavy on going Pro somewhere
When it involves odds stacked against Furman winning the league in hoops in terms of other teams' personnel, I always error on the side that all-star teams are getting formed at all other nine league programs to prevent Furman from winning the tourney in Asheville, but let's be honest...They'll need to assemble a mid-major all-star team I believe and that probably still won't be enough in 2022-23...I kid a little, but the latter part might be true 
I've convinced myself that Matthew Ragsdale (6'4 SG) is who we should sign as our transfer pickup this season
Good size, scoring ability and experience, shooting numbers dropped a bit this season as his usage went up but that's something our system can clean up as he will not be asked to be such a workhorse for us

I would love to see Stephens in purple and white.
