How many years might it take to get that BS or BA? Perhaps as many as 10 years if you play it right. 🤔😏

Welcome to the National Cash Athletic Association (NCAA).

Huh? This is a stretch with no logical correlation. The woman is stepping down after plagiarizing a paper. The accreditation board is not stepping in and penalizing the public health department. How are academics hypocritical?

This issue has, literally, nothing to do with athletics let alone the basketball team. There is no correlation. Therefore this thread should be moved to the Off Topic Forum.

I thought somebody said that Reader and Asuma were good friends from AAU days. Reader may just want to play for the hometown team without concerns for NIL.

And if you keep following them, you will eventually learn the nickname of every University. Hello Banana Slugs!

I take it you don't like the AAU circuit. 🤔

The lack of support, in my experience as a teacher for 15 years, was in the school administration. My observation was that bad teachers often became administrators while great teachers loved teaching. The problem is that those former bad teachers then dictate their bad policies on good teachers...

Black is a skin color, not a race. White is a skin color, not a race. There is no correlation between coaching/playing and race. It's a false construct created by bigots.

I can hardly wait until we get the first maroon coach. Basketball runs deep in the indigenous community. Why are their no Dakota or Ojibwe head coaches? With the Filipino love of basketball, where are the Filipino head coaches? What's the deal?

Haven't seen them play, but UND is a good proving ground to showcase skills and get stronger. Play a year or two at the mid-major level and see whether there is a bigger market that wants you.

This is where negotiating multi-year contracts will come in. It's bound to happen now that the facade of amatuerism is gone. I am not upset by what the players are doing. They are selling their time to the companies willing to hire them. Some will not get hired. Others will make a great salary...

Thanks for adding Mo. How could I have forgotten to mention him.

Anyone know how good Langston is at poetry? I can't get Langston Hughes out of my mind. Somehow I think mom liked his writing.

Maybe. At the same time the NBA is filled with guys who played at mid-major in college. I trust Niko to get the guys that will help him win here in Minnesota.
