Smart decision, good luck to him. Quack quack, lame duck at west Va. u.

CUSA vs The Big 12... gotta really wonder about that , if nothing else the bowl / tv / media exposure , realize there is a tie to UNCC but still...gotta be more to it.

Good kid but won't qualify
That's the reason

Figured as much - but was not going to be the one to actually say it..lol.

You don't walk away from what all would be available ( media etc) with the Big 12 for CUSA and not much of anything.

So UNCC takes props as well?

He may have won state player of the year, but he wasn't the top player in the state.

 

[Herd Fever]

they better take someone and anyone, their talent on their team is pathetic. They shouldnt even be a D1A program.

I agree with you.

He may have won state player of the year, but he wasn't the top player in the state.

He was the best player in the state by a wide margin.

 

[Pioneer_PA]

He was the best player in the state by a wide margin.

To each his own. Agree to disagree on that one. I feel he is very good, but his WVU commitment carried him to the Kennedy Award. I felt he was clearly top 3, though, in a year that good arguments could be made for all of those three, and a very good year for talent state-wide.

If he was the top player (and sound arguments could be made as such), it was clearly not by a wide margin.

Who is your top 5

It says so in the article. He has to go JUCO or to a school that can take partial qualifiers.

 

[Pioneer_PA]

Who is your top 5

Seniors only:

Reese Donahue
Elijah Bell
Cody Mitchell
Tyree Pratt
Dylan Tonkery

And you could make great arguments for Savion Johnson, Kentre Grier, and Donte Bonamico.

Marshall a win win win.....UNCC a lose lose lose...go figure....must not be a serious competitor who values winning games.

 

[The Real SamC]

Any West Virginian who is given the honor of wearing the Green And White and does otherwise is irrelevant to me. Enjoy obscurity.

 

[MUMA99]

Big 12 doesn't take non-qualifiers.

Grades. What I don't understand is if he is not going to a JC to get his academics in order for WVU, why then go to Charlotte and not Marshall....?

Maybe he wants a change of scenery.

Maybe he wants a change of scenery.

Maybe Marshall didn't want him for some reason.
