So is still gone from TCU? Going overseas?

This is too bad but in no way a shock. He needed to stay in college for at least one more year to get stronger, more consistent, etc. I’m sure he’s gonna try for a career overseas—I wish Kouat all the best, just wish you coulda stayed!!

If he was going oversees why remove your name from the draft? Seems like he wants to protect his amateur status.

Now what Mr. Noi?

 

[Limp Lizard]

Sounds like he finally listened to someone besides Momma, Daddy, and his agent.

 

[BABYFACE]

He is going abroad to play. He has no interest in school.

Premature delusions of grandeur

A broad?? The WNBA?

Wish him well but I think he’s in for a rude awakening.

Speaking of basketball, are we going to be one of the six teams receiving notice of serious infractions?

If we are I’ll laugh with what some of the blue bloods have thrown around money wise just to get kids to school. TCU didn’t pay anyone, just set up a meeting with an agent. A lot different imo

Didn’t even do that.

Good so even more laughable if we are involved

Some combination of Arizona, Kansas, Oregon, Louisville, NC State, Creighton and USC.

I bet he could have a successful career overseas. He is long, coordinated, and can shoot

I agree. Although I think successful is relative. His shot leaves low (around head high), defense is suspect, and other skills average at best.

Wish him the best, he has some talent. Withdrawing from the draft I'd speculate to see him overseas for a year or two and then reenter draft.

Noi would have benefited by gutting it up, studying, and getting a degree from TCU.

Sure school is tough, but wait until you've played for five years in the Italian league.

Once done with basketball then what?

Come back to Fort Worth and get a job?

Mr. Noi "Did you get your degree?"

"No, but I plan on going to school at night after working an 8 hour day."

"Okay, we will be in touch. . . NEXT".

The business world wants commitment, not night school.
