It's story time. Please share.

And names. Need names. For science.

I'll never forget being barely alive before an 8am Friday class and walking past Maya Moore walking and reading a leizure book.

I was there 07-11. Even had group projects with a few players. They worked hard.

Was there 05-09 and had one class in 2009 with everyone on the team aside from Price if memory serves. They all showed up every class that they weren't out of state for a game.

It's story time. Please share.

98-02... Some of the "greats..." Great basketball players, hideous human beings. You could probably guess which ones were cool; Bird, Svetlana, etc...

Seriously. Demarcus Cousins leaving the program with a good GPA and APR standing is a total giveaway.

Why?

It doesn't make sense that a player could be ineligible for the Wooden award but eligible to play.

Because it is a mid-term GPA reported by the school to the Wooden award people. He was over the NCAA minimum after the first semester, and therefore is eligible this semester until final grades are in.

It is what it is. A one and done that won't even get them into the NCAA tourney and will hurt their APR. Hope it was worth it. Kid should have been able to just go to th3 NBA.
