Basketball Departures

[Fuck Your Couch]

That's awesome for both, and especially impressive from Tree.

In the scheme of things Rondale transferring now does not matter a whole lot in that it is doubtful we'd bring in more than 1 more for 2015.

Rountree has already played 3 years.

Yes I am aware. If you read, the question I am asking is whether he would be precluded from a postgrad 5th year by graduating early.

 

[VaDeac]

I don't think the 5th year of eligibility thing happens in basketball.
Did Leonard or Coron play 5 years total, or 3, then graduate, then 1?

 

[Fuck Your Couch]

Darius Leonard only played 3 years before coming to Wake. He sat out a year at Campbell after transferring from Kent State.

Post grad years only give you immediate eligibility, not an extra year.

You have 5 years to play 4 seasons. So those others were either RS juniors, or just graduated after 3 years like Tree.

Oh. So you're stupid. I was assuming you weren't. Since you are stupid, I'll have to explain it to you.

All players get up to 5 years of a scholarship to complete 4 years of eligibility. Of course, a player with two seasons of injury like Green could get a 6th year to complete 4 years. A player who completed 3 years of eligibility in 4 years like Leonard or Coron would get a 5th year to play elsewhere. A player like Rountree who completes 3 years of eligibility in 3 years only gets the 4th year. Obviously, it's rare that a player graduates in 3 years.

Leonard only had 4 years of eligibility. He had to sit out a year when he transferred (but was still taking classes during that year). So he graduated from Campbell (in 4 academic years) with 1 year of eligibility remaining. Same applies to Coron, but he just redshirted, rather than transferring and sitting out a year.

Thank you for that beige tower 3rd tier public school wisdom. Much obliged.

We need to come up with a way to have like five post-grads at a time. So like kids would rush through their studies at their first schools or transfer at least once so they could transfer to Wake and play with other post-grads and dominate all the other youngsters and one-and-dones.

Would OWG's be cool with this? Need a ruling.

We would be the anti-UK.

You asked a dumb question then gave a condescending response to a straightforward answer.

 

[Biff Tannen]

Of course they would be. They're staying in school for even longer in most cases.

Perhaps we could start a Masters program in something cool that no other school has.

One year masters in Comparative Swahili Lit.

I aspire to the level of astuteness of the velvet robed scholars that grace your halls on the reg.

 

[PTownDeac]

Best of luck to Aaron Rountree. Always appreciated the effort he put forth every time he stepped foot on the court. NC boy and a great rep of Wake Forest.

Dude, hot chicks with implants wear bikinis to his Sociology classes. If anyone's wearing a velvet robe, it's part of a slutty Halloween costume or she's in between shifts at an all-nude strip club. We just WISH we had gone to school there.

I wish to not stoop to the depths of the cluelessness of your fellow fry cooks at The Varsity.

Pretty much.
