Randolph Morris from March Madness to NBA??

On Cold Pizza today (i know most people on this board hate this show, but lets try to stay on topic. shall we?) anyway, Randolph Morris, star forward for the Kentucky Wildcats, due to a loophole is a free agent right now. Back in 2005, Morris went through the draft undrafted, but did not sign with an agent, allowing him to go back to Kentucky. Since he already went through the draft, Morris is allowed to sign with any team as soon as today.

Confusing? Yes. Would I like to see the Sixers sign him? Of course, although the Bobcats should take a chance with all of their cap room.

 

Sweet! I hope he fucks over the NBA's lame-ass "let's keep using college hoops as our minor legues" rules.

 

I think Morris is either one of the most overrated players ever or one of the greatest underachievers ever.

 

Either way, he's about to get paid Dawg!!!!

 

So he can play this season?

 

If he is a free agent, I can't see why not.

 

I'm just going to assume that he's not going to class anymore

 

Would you?

 

Why would you assume that a Kentucky basketball player was going to class in the first place?

 

Anymore??

 

He could have played in the NBA at any point this season.
He has been eligible for both for a while.
ESPN did a story detailing how was eligible to play in the NBA at any time this season.

 

Does the new rule about early NBA applicants start this year? That rule hurts programs whose players leave with lapsed eligibility by pulling scholarships. So in that sense, he would screw Tubby and Co. royally if he pulled out of school in mid-semester. Though I bet Kentucky's out soon...
