Canadian therefore unranked, *****; no promises. I got a battle for Dominic Labriola from Buffalo, but it never worried me because they had only enough money to fill one scholarship. The positives: he's got a good work ethic and low post rating, so I don't have to worry about that, good passing and defense and decent rebounding and shot blocking. The negatives: his FT shooting is decidedly sub-par. C- if I'm lucky. He's also not very fast or athletic. He will be able to play immediately, and I'm pretty sure he'll be doing just that. No real expectations regarding the NBA. If I had to guess, I'd say he's not gonna make it, just due to his speed and athleticism.

[edit:]

hmm, maybe that prediction was premature...

Coach, I know it's not an easy decision, but I think you made the right one - don't worry about me, I'm looking forward to year of working on my game.

David


David Labriola had a solid but unspectacular career. I expected a lot more out of him. I do think that he'll be drafted pretty highly, nonetheless, simply due to his very solid skill set. Still, he never was a great athlete, and it showed.

Wow. The run continues. I knew the team was talented but this is the first time they're really showing it this year. I mean, they've had a winning streak before, but this is a winning streak at exactly the right time.

On to the Elite 8!

Oh, and BGSU is coached by gregdoc6, one of the coaching graduates of USC Aiken, the DII powerhouse I built and have watched thrive under several excellent people.
4/1/2009 7:40 AM
Just figured that since colorblind has been kind enough to pop back into the USC Aiken thread on occasion, that I would wish him luck the rest of the way this year, and hope he can emulate the real life MSU!
