B Back Transfer - Patrick Skov

[Eric]

Any word on Skov, ...Bueller?

If there were any news we have it posted... Have to be patient with this one.

The Skov visit is over...he left last night.

Was told it went well...no decision yet.

Duthty [sic] Rhodes, the American Dream! I loved that guy as a kid.

What is your thoughts on landing him? Will Shaw talk him out of it or do you think he sees himself being productive in this offence?

Comes to a education decision for him.

Why would he alienate his coaches and mates if he wasn't seriously considering transferring. If he was my teammate and he came back, I would be p1$$ed!

Didn't alienate anyone.

His coaches knew of this ahead of time and approved of it...they understand this is a education decision for him.

We also have to wait for someone to leave. It will be interesting.

No it wont. 4 or 5 guys will leave minimum. Every program every year. Skov can commit and be comfortable with that.

oh we do? Shoot I thought we had room for 1.

 

[Eric]

oh we do? Shoot I thought we had room for 1.

We have 84 right now...if Jabari gets back in good grace that puts us at 85.

So we would need one to open up.

 

[shockwaveGT]

Does this imply anything about Jabari not making it?

It probably implies more about someone buried in the depth chart 'not making it.'

The Stanford boards are saying he's trying to get into our MBA program...which is considerably harder to get into if you don't have professional experience.

Btw, the best of Lucas Cox (the only game where he got substantial time at BB): Miami, 2008



Watch at 2:27, 3:02, and 3:39. I really liked Allen, but if Lucas had gotten a year to start, we'd still be comparing our BBs to him.

Nice bunch of videos clips.

Not to be a jerk, but why would anyone pick ours over a Stanford MBA?

I would guess it would have something to do with money. Given that he only has one year of eligibility left, I am guessing that he would have to pay for the second year. Stanford is ranked top 5, but Tech is also a very respectable top 25-30. That said, Stanford is about $63k per year, while Tech is closer to $30k. That is a pretty big difference. Add the opportunity to actually get to carry the ball for a year and that is an attractive option.
