March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 01:46 PM) Retweeted by Freep Sports Jeff Goodman @GoodmanESPN 37m Ohio State's LaQuinton Ross will declare for NBA Draft, sources told ESPN. LaQuinton just tweeted that he hasn't made a decision yet. Really hope he decides to stay, could use another year.
March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 11:55 AM) Fred's going after Lee as well They are apparently the front runner.
March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 02:52 PM) LaQuinton just tweeted that he hasn't made a decision yet. Really hope he decides to stay, could use another year. He's not going to get more athletic and he has a daughter. Time for him to move to Europe.
March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 03:47 PM) They are apparently the front runner. That would be fantastic, and would help lessen the blow of the seniors leaving.
March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 04:49 PM) That would be fantastic, and would help lessen the blow of the seniors leaving. He's supposedly visiting Columbus this weekend.
March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (farmteam @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 10:09 AM) Vonleh declares, no shocker there. Anthony Lee, your table is ready! Etherington and Hollowell both to transfer. I won't miss the latter but I always thought Etherington provided a good spark every time he came in.
March 24, 201412 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 05:51 PM) Shaka is going to Marquette. Wasn't one of Williams' reasons "disappointment" about the new conference alignment? What does that even mean? He was upset because he missed out on the NCAA's the first time in quite awhile? What is it with WI? Seems they always get coaches like Pearl (roots at UWMilwaukee) and Smart who play uptempo/press or coaches with very deliberate styles like Bennett and Ryan (although this WI team is much more uptempo).

March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 06:51 PM) Shaka is going to Marquette. Says everyone's "sources" on Twitter. At this point, most people are just trolling, no one really knows how legit it is.

March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 08:42 PM) CHECK THE FLIGHT PATHS Check all private charters from Milwaukee to the closest local airport to the VCU campus. Call in NCIS investigators.
March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 05:30 PM) He's supposedly visiting Columbus this weekend. Yeah, I know he's supposed to be here VEISHEA weekend. I hope he likes T.I.

March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 06:51 PM) Shaka is going to Marquette. FWIW. Adam Finkelstein @AdamFinkelstein 2h Shaka Smart spoke to VCU commits & their coaches yesterday & assured them he isn't going anywhere
March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 06:51 PM) Shaka is going to Marquette. That would really surprise me. Why would he not go to Illinois but go to Marquette? That's just silly. Unless he was just scared.
March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 10:28 AM) That would really surprise me. Why would he not go to Illinois but go to Marquette? That's just silly. Unless he was just scared. Or UCLA.
March 25, 201412 yr Disagree. California + Money= win If Howland can do damage at UCLA, Shaka could have too.
March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 11:00 AM) Disagree. California + Money= win If Howland can do damage at UCLA, Shaka could have too. And how quickly was he ran out of there?
March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 11:07 AM) And how quickly was he ran out of there? He was at UCLA for 10 years, 5 of which were after his last Final Four run. How many coaches beat that?
March 25, 201412 yr QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 11:17 AM) He was at UCLA for 10 years, 5 of which were after his last Final Four run. How many coaches beat that? So a final four run bought him five years. Exactly.
