Kolek planning to go pro
I'm from Santa Monica, I went to Marquette, it's not that big a deal. Buy some gloves and suck it up.
so you're saying my L A&M PhD is no good?
Seriously, has MU really had such trouble landing kids from warmer climates over the past 15+ years?Jimmy Butler (Texas)Jae Crowder (Georgia)Haanif Cheatham (Florida)Jamail Jones (Georgia)Joe Fulce (Texas)DeMarcus Minor (Texas)Carlton Christian (Florida)Chris Otule (Texas)Juan Anderson (Cali)Karon Bradley (Texas)Ousmane Barro (Senegal)Obviously the Midwest is, and likely always will be, MU's base, but it's hardly some impossible task to recruit a player from someplace warmer than Milwaukee.
You can give all the scholys you want out in California, you want transfers, wait till they spend a winter here. California kids have no idea about winter. We will really see how good the new coach is and how many kids want to follow him.
What was the last "warm weather" NCAA team to win an NCAA title?Arguably Florida.How many in the past decade?2, but just one team: Florida (2006-2007).Before that? Arizona (1997) and UCLA (1995).
Duke won it about 2 months ago, North Carolina isn't exactly cold weather.
The average low temperature in Durham from Dec-Feb is about 29 degrees, which is the same as Philadelphia. Highs are closer to 50 for the three months.
My parents in central Florida see plenty of highs in the 50s and see low temps in the high 20s and 30s regularly throughout the winter. Is NC (outside of mountainous areas) ready for a significant (3+") snowfall? If not, that's not a cold weather state.
high 20s in central florida can really damage the citrus industry, ai na?
Ha, I grew up on 25th between pico and ocean park
You're not kidding. Some family friends sold off their citrus farms for that very reason.
Just since 2005, UNC twice, Florida twice, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisville, Duke twice. The only cold weather school since then to win the National Title was Connecticut twice.
About as useful as my MBA from here:
MU also offered Emmanuel Malou along with ASU and OSU. Don't know anything about him other than he is 6'9". Anyone have any insight into this offer?
I have just begun a correspondence course with the Central Luzon Institute of Technology
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.
Ha, ha, ha...Everyone knows North Luzon Institute of Technology is where you want to go.
Howard will be on campus this weekend.Jon Rothstein @JonRothstein2017 guard Markus Howard (Findlay Prep) will take an unofficial visit to Marquette on Saturday, source told @CBSSports. Five-star prospect.
