Unless you are drafted as a freshman or sophomore, you aren't going first round, and might not get drafted. Deeky's chances of playing in the NBA are a little better than mine... :lol:

I mean it's certainly not common, but it's kind of funny to make this comment the day after a Junior was taken as the #15 pick in the NBA draft ;)

Honestly, I don't care how many juniors were taken in the first round...Dejon Jarreau is not going to play in the NBA.

I think 78's comment is very accurate. 78 probably has a near zero chance of playing in the NBA (I'm holding a tiny chance he becomes famous for some random reason and gets signed for a day on some promotional gimmick). However that is only a fractionally lower chance than Deeky making it. Not bashing Deeky, the chances of making it are near zero for every college player let only those who've done nothing of significance so far. That's reality, I hope he is preparing to get a degree.

So did any of the schools they were considering already fill their scholarships and are now out of the question? Apologies if that was already asked and answered.

I didn't say otherwise. I was just pointing out it was funny to have that statement be made literally the day before the opposite of it happens.

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head :cry:

Regarding scholarships left, it appears both Seton Hall and Creighton have a number available for 2018, which is when these guys will qualify again. I always wonder who pays their way for that one year when they don't have a scholly.

Yeah, I don't know their financial situations but asking a family to pay for a year so they can be on scholarship the following year can't be easy for a lot of families who are relying on the scholarship to pay for school.

I guess I was just assuming wherever they go they would need to have a scholarship for the sit-out year as well.
