JUCO guys

[HoopsMalone]

I don't know what academic or family situations are like for guys like Buyucks or Monterale Clark, or if there just were not any scholarships available when the committed, but if you commit to a D1 program like Marquette, why would you go back to JUCO for another year?  Why doesn't Clarke just come to Marquette next season?  Why didn't Buyucks join the team when Taylor and Williams left?  If you only play one year at JUCO do you have to redshirt like Liam?  I would almost think taking a year like Liam is better than another year of JUCO so you get to know the system.

It's not a choice, there are NCAA requirements involved.

If you were a full academic qualifier and chose to go the JUCO route to get more scholarship opportunities then you only have to do one year.

If you were not a full qualifier and needed to go the JUCO route to improve your academic standing then you have to do two years. 

Both Buycks and Maymon were the latter.

Maymon? Did you mean Clark?

Maymon? Did you mean Clark?

Yes I did, sorry about that.

I know that there are many "ratings" services out there and it is a highly subjective issue, but I wonder if anyone can give us a concensus of where the incoming 5 recruits for next year stand nationally?

Thanks.
