Willie Reed: any reason to get excited about a kid from SLU?

jtksu · « **Reply #4 on:** October 16, 2010, 06:27:18 PM »

Yeah, the kid is a first round talent. I'd say that's worth getting excited about.

Yep!

If he starts classes on Monday wouldn't he be eligible a year from then? A few other sites are saying that he wouldn't be able to enroll at KSU until January and subsequently wouldn't be eligible until Jan 2012.

Yep!

Me too, and if that didn't work I was going to throw this in:

"They gave me harassment because they said I could have intimidated her by being tall and made her scared," Reed said. "They gave me improper conduct as a student because they said I could have helped her out. I did nothing to help her whatsoever."

8 week courses maybe?

jtksu · « **Reply #14 on:** October 16, 2010, 07:32:56 PM »

Yeah, no reason he can't take 8 weeks classes. Plus, does him being enrolled even matter for his eligibility? Dude could go juco for a year (Cloud?) Be eligible for us next year. Why would he have to be enrolled at KSU for his one year waiting period to begin?

you have to enroll at a new school before the one year clock starts ticking. wouldn't have to be kstate, but it sounds like it will be.

According to the NCAA the transferring student has to be enrolled by the 12th day of class in order for that semester or quarter to count toward their one academic year.

Whether or not enrolling in 12 hours of 8-week classes is a way to get around that I don't know.

jtksu · « **Reply #17 on:** October 16, 2010, 07:52:08 PM »

A player can't just sit out a year? Did not know that, though I'm not sure why someone would want to do that anyway.

Thoughts on Reed:

In high school, whenever Miege played us, I always thought Reed was the backbone of the team, rather than Travis Releford (KU Benchwarmer).

He was known as the "Birdman." Whenever he dunked, he would do the bird flapping its wings thing with his hands above his face. Was a very

for an opposing student to watch. Very

.

I'm excited about this addition to the basketball team.

I wish we knew what the eligibility situation was.

Sounds like we have a Doberman on our hands.

I could care less if this guy is a terrible basketball player...we helped a soul leave the country's shittiest city (StL), and for that we shall be cosmically rewarded.
