I think he made a horrible decision. He could have declared and worked out without signing an agent. Then he could have seen where he stood against NBA competition while leaving his options open. It seems he wanted whatever $$$ he could get now rather than later but it's possible that he could walk away with relatively little guaranteed money.
And I think you couldn't be more wrong. He is not physically ready for the kind of guys in the NBA. A year would do him a lot of good.
LMAO. Right. So everyone should turn pro after their freshman year, since they will learn more that way. You're nuts.
I'd say you're nuts too, except everyone already knows that. Time for another user name change.
In fairness I expect Carr to sign a $4 million contract with half of that being guaranteed. That's got to be incredibly attractive to a kid like that. The problem is that $2 million guaranteed gets cut in half after paying agent commissions and taxes. So how far will $1 million take him? Of course he could make it in the league and if not he could play in Europe for $100k per year. He won't be poor. It's just that he could have easily doubled that amount if he came back and had a good year at PSU.
Well, obviously, Carr did NOT declare for the pros after his freshman year. Just my opinion, but I think he can be a long-term NBA player who might take a year or two before being on a pro roster full time (possibly going back and forth from G-League to the NBA for some period of time). He's got size and passing ability.
Two Bridges actually, Nova and Michigan State. And they happen to be roughly the same size, and roughly the same draft projection. From the SI article:
Very good possibility. One guy that my son played college baseball with was hoping to get drafted after his junior year because he didn’t like college. He carried a 3.75 GPA, but his mind was always on baseball and he wanted to be able to work and focus on baseball every day. He got drafted and left. It had nothing to do with the school, he just didn’t like college and now he loves it in the minors because he gets to play baseball every day and doesn’t have to worry about going to class, studying or taking tests. He may never make the show, but for now he gets to do what he loves every day and he got a pretty nice signing bonus.
Yes, me also. And this time, I'd go up to that girl in Pattee Library.
Dude, shut up. You haven’t made one positive post about PSU b-ball this year, and we god damn won the NIT and had one of our best seasons in program history. The stuff you are saying is assanine as well. It’s laughable. Tell Sandy, who is one of the top ADs in the country and getting paid millions your bullshit. Btw, chambers just got an extension!!!!
