I'm pretty sure you have to bow down and ask Tom to change it for you.

Samuel is a tall 6'3", might even be 6'4". He has a really tight handle and can really get into the lane. I spoke with a scout at a game and said he has a really advanced passing game for his age. His shot needs work, yes. But with all the offensive weapons we're surrounding him with (Calhoun, Facey, Daniels, hopefully Black/Hill/Carrington) there is a good chance he averages 7+ assists per game by his senior year.
A Scotsman if you please.

its entertaining to think that you assume boatright will go pro. It's quite easy to go to NBAdraft.net or Draftexpress.com and see projections for 2014. Is boatright on there? No. Why? because he is not an NBA player. A great college player, but not an NBA player.

I'm not assuming he goes pro. College basketball is now a one season at a time sport. The turnover makes any projection past the next season pointless.
You are throwing the word great around pretty loosely though.

I see what you're saying. I'll correct myself, he CAN be great. I would say this past season he was "good".
Regardless, i'm just always hoping for the best. All things aside, let's focus on next year and our run at getting to Cowboy Stadium.

I can't recall a guy ranked outside the top 100 who came here and really was a stud, but of course rankings don't matter
This was prior to the new league where we face crap teams like ECU, Tulane regularly and not Cuse, Pitt, Nova, GTOwn, Marquette or ND

wow...this 'rumor' is really getting legs...i read the tweets by the guy that seems to know his stuff and yeah he said 1on1 with Gottfried and then a decision will be coming before the weekend. Gottfried can easily give him PT next season though which is what purvis wants...would love the kid here hopefully it happens but still going to be pessimistic...

I read a story on a North Carolina website that said Gottfried had already met with Purvis.

Take this with a grain of salt but Purvis just started following Ryan Boatright on Twitter.

unless he hates Gottfried I don't see why he would transfer. With all the guys leaving he would get all the PT and shots he wants, plus he's delaying his potential pro career by a year. Not that I wouldn't love to have him but you don't usually see a top 20/McDonalds All American kid make that kind of move.

I think worrying about college sports is a little weird. Interested, yup worried, nah. I'm worried I won't be alive in 2015 Then again, checking the BY every 5 minutes qualifies me as weird, or so my wife says when she isn't watching Say Yes To The Dress.

Between the Boneyard and twitter I've become so unproductive at work, and even more so since the ACC invited Ville. I'm depressed about our conference, and this site is like therapy for me. Misery loves company, right?

FWIW, Emeka was right around #100. (I think Craig Forth was #94 that year.)

I think a change of scenery and playing for a guard oriented coach like Ollie would benefit Purvis. His athleticism is top notch and a year practicing behind Boatwright and Napier would do him a world of good.
