    I thought we weren't allowed to get political on this board. Or is he related to Yo Mama?

    As a Vol, mo Bama is the last thing I want to see. I hope it’s long gone.

    Really interesting. If Tech is to be relevant in the ACC, they need him back. He's on the NBA radar, probably a mid-2nd rounder depending on how he does at the Portsmouth camp.
    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    Louisville’s Deng Adel and Ray Spalding are both going to “test the waters “
    But not hire an agent. I bet Adel finds real interest from NBA teams.

    Yurtseven Leaving State

    Wow, this is a surprise, he must be unhappy for some reason. He's either going pro, or transferring.

    Going pro would make sense. Transferring would be a surprise; he has stuck it out through some rough times already and they are poised to be pretty good next year. Why would he sit out a year in order to go somewhere else when he has pro potential either this season or next?

    Yeah, not a huge shock. There was certainly hope that he stayed from State fans, but Yurtseven doesn't really fit what Keatts' preferred style of play is. I suspect he'll go pro. He's got pro height/length and offensive skills, so I think he'll make a go of it there. I doubt he'd transfer, but you never know.

    Definitely should go pro, whether NBA or overseas.

    7 footers who can hit 3s are valuable in today's NBA.

    Agreed, this is certainly about turning pro. My bet is that he checks out the NBA interest -- which may be fairly high, I could see him going in the early-mid 2nd round if he fares well at Portsmouth -- and if that does not work out then he heads back to Europe.

    Bonzie fractures left foot again

    Unfortunately, sounds like Bonzie Colson fractured his same left foot in ND's loss to Penn St in the NIT. Bummer...They say he still should be ready for pre-draft team workouts somehow though.

    (Didn't want to start a new thread and this was the best place I could find. I realize he's a senior so has no choice but to be "gone.")

    He's gonna be the next Draymond.

    I have mixed feelings. Honestly, I wish he had played better this season and was leaving because he was a first round lock. That said he dramatically improved between last year and this and will hopefully go in the NBA draft.

    7'ers who can shoot are always in demand. He needs to work on his strength, but that's why you turn pro because you can work on sports as much as your mind and body allow with professionals who have millions of $$$ invested in your success as opposed to college which is only supposed to allow limited windows where you can be coached or supervised.

    I think Turkey is safe for now. At least I hope so, I'm flying through there soon...

    Not for Yurtseven. I believe he faced threats for criticizing Erdogan.

    Wouldn't work-don't think he's being investigated for anything now and his previous eligibility "troubles" (IIRC) were resolved .
