This is actually great news for Syracuse as an early entrant his academic lack of progress won't count toward Syracuse's Academic Progress Rate.

Yes it will.  The only way it doesn't affect their APR is if he leaves in good standing, which it appears that he won't.

why is he not in good standing?  just because he isn't graduating?  he put up some pretty good numbers, lost a bunch of weight and may go on to have a decent nba career if he continues to improve.  i'd say good luck to him and he's probably grateful to syracuse for giving him a chance to showcase his skills-nothing wrong with that

Having to sit out in the NCAA tourney after already having a suspension for academic issues may signal he is not in good standing.

Agreed, but that has nothing to do with the APR.

Ah so, thank you for the clarification.  May Syracuse burn in NCAA sanction hell!!!
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Just wondering what the definition of "breakout season" is.

7.8 points, 5.8 rebounds? Really?

The good thing is, he will always have those seven Syracuse credits to fall back on.

They must offer "Theory of Basketball Coaching" there.   ::)

NBA Draftnet has Melo going as the last pick in the first round to the Bulls.

http://www.nbadraft.net/2012mock_draft

This would be good for Jimmy Butler, bad news for Scalabrine (Jackie Moon)


Certainly not what they need. They need someone who can create a shot other than Rose.  They've already got enough of what Melo will bring to the NBA table.
These NBA mock drafts are toughest for these guys to pick after the top few.  Where was Jimmy projected last year? Much later than he was actually picked I thought.

The Bulls definitely need a guy with the skillset of Melo from Syracuse, just not this Melo from Syracuse.
